Forged TWS T66-F 17x9 +40 IN STOCK!
 
In June I went to Japan, and visited the wheel foundry of the Tan-Ei-Sya company, maker of TWS wheels. (Tan-Ei-Sya translates to "Excellent Forging," and that is indeed what they do.)

TWS are all FORGED wheels. Forging results in an extremely strong and light wheel. Futhermore, the T66-F wheel is made from an exclusive aluminum alloy that is both stiffer and lighter than normal T6061. The result in a wheel that is incredibly light. Each wheel weighs only 15.75 pounds.

We have these wheels IN stock now in 17x9" +40 fitment, in four colors:

Matte silver

Gloss silver

Matte bronze


http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y24...s.jpg~original
Matte gold

This is not a group buy or a pre-order thing. These wheels are IN OUR SHOWROOM at this moment. I took these photos myself.

Of course, forging wheels is not a cheap process, nor is transporting them here to the U.S. These are very expensive wheels. But they are among the lightest wheels you will find, and they are of course quite exclusive.

Sorry, I don't yet have photos of this exact fitment on a car. But here's a shot I took of a TWS-sponsored 86 racer. I think this car is wearing 16's.

You should change the title of your post to say "TWS" not "TSW" - might be losing hits because of that.

Great wheels though!

This is the bottom of the forging press in action. The blue flames are keeping the wheel and fixture at the proper temperature.

TWS wheels undergo tons of rigorous testing, including tests where actual wheels are pulled off the assembly line and sawed up to examine their internal structure.

I don't remember if I replied to this by PM, but the general answer is that the price on the site is the price you pay. Shipping rates are available from the shipping calculator when you click "Edit Cart."

Sorry, but it's difficult to stock EVERY possible color. You could always have them custom-painted or powder-coated...

TWS makes tons of racing wheels, including these Formula car wheels.

Have you still got these in stock? And do you offer international shipment to Australia ?

I see these fit Sti Brembos, any idea if they will clear ATS brembos?

Yes and yes.

The rotor size is no larger than STI brakes, so I would think they would fit fine.
