Do these wheels come in a 17" version? The 18s seem to be on the heavy side.

Yup. They come in 17x8 too. The 18x8s are 18.75lbs or so though. That's still lighter than the stock wheels.

I almost went that route until everybody started getting these, they would look good though in my opinion.

What I really want to see is the matte gunmetal ones on Ultramarine, but I may have to be the first.

I agree I have a whiteout and was set on the mirror finish until i saw those pics. I think the gunmetal looks best out of all the finishes though.

I like the style just wish they had a less flat face.

Photoshopped onto my car. What do you guys think?
I wish the rims were a tad less shiny, but I guess I can always powdercoat them in the future. I can get them for slightly cheaper than the Enkei Raijins, which I like in gunmetal (not as dark as the TSW Matte Gunmetal). Plus, the TSWs are about two pounds lighter.

Honestly I think the Interlagos would look better in silver on that color. I know its not the same mesh style wheel but thats just my opinion.

Does anyone with possible inside info from TSW know if they will make these in 18 x 9 in the 5 x 100 pattern. I keep looking at other wheels and just keep coming back to these for some reason. I love them. Just want to put 255's on my car.
