im back and im sorry for the insult i was just angry itll be better

ANY 1 MISS ME

 

Welcome back buddy, hope theres no further misunderstandings.

 

i don't even know what happened.

 

That musta been some insult.

 

lol ahaa
sooon i will post pic of TSW wheels. need some help with them dont know wich 1nz

 

I thought you were going to get HRE's? HRE's to TSW's is a huge difference.

sounds like someone was just blowing steam...

 

i think hes the same guy as C230_617

 

 

yes you are right i was thinking of hre but there not worth the mney and they arent as strong as tsw hre very easy to crack check out tsw rims wich 1

 

UMM no, im not

 

are you kidding me? as good as TSW's are, they're CAST wheels, so they're more prone to damage than FORGED HRE wheels. there's a reason why the HRE's are more expensive.

 

yea your right

 

cast wheels can crack if the force of hitting potholes are too great. Forged wheels usually only bend in this case and are usually easier to repair or just replace the bent part.

 

Thanks FrankW for the notice, this dealer told me 1 peice will be better it wont crack that easy i dont know what he was trying to tell me, he told me i forged had a problem fitment with a car before.. i need help

 

man, your posts are so hard to understand..

 

In what world are 1 piece rims better than 2 or 3 piece rims? WTF? Whatever that company is, tell them that they don't know what they're talking about. If they told you TSW's are better quality than HRE's, ask them what they're smoking, cuz I want some too! Granted, HRE's have been known to be "over-hyped" for the price, but they are still good quality rims.

The only company that makes forged wheels, that I've heard a few problems about (w/ regard to finish not fitment) are iforged, however many people have iforged rims and have not had any problem with them.

No matter what, if you buy a multi piece (2 or 3) forged set of rims, they will most likely be better quality than a 1 piece cast iron/aluminum set of rims. Any "fitment" problems would be based on the wheel size, offsets, and tire size.

 

I like TSW wheels but their nickname is after all... "The Soft Wheel," so I think you should get your facts straight and do your homework first. I have always liked the way the catalunya's (top pic) look on a coupe. Don't waste your time either with some local shop.... contact the some of the sponsors here..... I know Neal from Euroteck and Evosport deal with them.... they will know of any fitment issues.

 

are the factory wheels on sports sedans (7-spoke older sport or 5-spoke newer sport) forged or cast? If they are cast, would TSW wheels be of lesser quality than factory MB wheels? ie. more prone to crack in a pot hole...etc. I was thinking about upgrading to the 19" AMG replica's by TSW.

 

I don't know of any 1 piece wheels that are forged, so I would assume that they are cast aluminium or iron.

The factory wheels on sport sedans, according to the mbusa website:

 

He pissed off Bob HERE

 

u should go with the HREs, not much of a fan of the TSWs especially on the coupe

 

there are 1 piece forged wheels out there. There are manufacturs that make them like Volk Racing and Kinesis

 

TSW doesn't make any forged wheels.

company that makes 1 piece forged wheels: Volks, SSR, Carlsson, Kinesis, etc.

 

Volk Racing makes 1 piece forged rims? Really? I wasn't aware of that. Thanks for the 411. I thought that only their 2/3 piece rims were forged, but if that's the case, that's very good information to know.

Didn't realize that Kinesis made 1 piece rims (I guess cuz I only looked at their multi-spoke rims).

 

dont know guys what rims 2 get any 1 can help willing to spend 2,500 for rims
