2012 c63 with TSW wheels

jcarlucci1 · 05-10-2012, 02:44 PM

Hi Guys - New to the board and just wanted to post up some pics of my 12 c63 with TSW Interlagos wheels. I couldn't find any pics of them before buying so thought this would help anyone interested - they look great on the car.

Looks sweet! How much?

jcarlucci1 · 05-10-2012, 02:53 PM

Well, I bought them from the dealer as part of my lease, so I got raped..but the Interlagos/and Toyo T1s tires are only about $2200 if you buy them online

N1ck · 05-10-2012, 02:55 PM

Looks great!

Nice wheels.. TSW have nice design & are inexpensive. I would just be careful as they are cast wheels. My brother in law had a set of 17's on her Acura, and after 2 years of driving, they were square. Lol Well, at least they don't cost much.

BTW, how did u get aftermarket wheels as part of a deal through dealership? Never heard u could do that.

jcarlucci1 · 05-10-2012, 03:08 PM

^ I dont know about the rest of their wheels, but the Interlagos are forged - The Tampa bay dealership sells wheels, headers, tune, airboxes, etc, all under warranty. Very expensive though.

Roswell · 05-10-2012, 03:09 PM

^^ wow, nice to hear they now make forged wheels.

vdubpower · 05-10-2012, 03:15 PM

Rotory forged whatever that means

bobbyzcar · 05-10-2012, 03:22 PM

What sizes and offsets are those?
I'm guessing 19"x8" 45 offset fromt and 19"x9.5" 53 offset rear?
Looks great.

jcarlucci1 · 05-10-2012, 03:25 PM

Thats correct. 12mm spacer in front

Rotary forging is a process that shapes the outer barrel of a wheel while using a very high pressure press while being spun around at high speeds.
This process causes aluminum molecules to align in a circular pattern while the barrel is being spun. This causes the barrel to have high strength while keeping low weight.

Jcarlucci1, car looks awesome!!

LAMB09 · 05-10-2012, 10:42 PM

car looks great, can you post more pics and some close ups of the wheels

BrunoC63 · 05-10-2012, 10:44 PM

jcarlucci1 · 05-10-2012, 10:53 PM

Warranty only accepted at Tampa bay dealership or ? How does that work? What brand tune/ headers?

Your car looks great! Nice touch on the mods

Very nice wheels.

Rotary forged aren't true forged wheels like HRE but regardless they are very good quality and relatively light weight. Great choice.

jcarlucci1 · 05-11-2012, 12:52 AM

As far as I know, it is only warranteed at that dealership. They offer Rentech and Kleeman tunes, row airbox - not sure which headers though

wat?

Nothing wrong with cast wheels. Plenty strong enough for track duty even. I've been road racing on cast wheels for over 10 years with no problems. This includes two wheeling off curbs for fun.

dodger63 · 05-11-2012, 02:21 AM

Getting back to the pics. I think they look great always liked tsw designs and prices good luck

This was back in 1999, I'm sure aftermarket wheels have gotten better. I was just sharing his experience. Plus, it all depends where u live & what the road conditions are in ur area. I'm sure SF roads are not as bad as our Canadian roads.
