Don't know when they will be available. Website states starting at 22lbs which is good for a 19" and the set will be just under $3,000.

Here's a LINK to the website press release.

High dollar for cast wheels

JDLAutoDesign 12-03-2012 12:18 PM

Low pressure cast wheels are pretty light compared to traditional cast wheels. Its a more affordable way to get into a lightweight wheel without spending the amount a forged wheel demands

:( Still far too rich for me... the P40's still look better too.

For those who may not know:

gravity cast < low-pressure cast < flow-form/rotary forged < forged

P40S would be awesome but those are big $$. Set you back more than $6K for a set of 4. These are based on the P40 and half the price.

And they only make them in large and too large instead of normal.

Pretty expensive for a TSW Nurburgring with an HRE stamp.

White64Goat 12-04-2012 01:45 PM

They'll look good with that $900 rear end cover.............:thumbdown:

Starting at 19s? Too big for this car imo, 18s would have been quite nice.

empower-auto 12-04-2012 02:19 PM

That's not even remotely a good price when companies like WORK, Vossen, Forgestar etc offer the same technology for much less.

JDLAutoDesign 12-04-2012 02:28 PM

Hey they arent for everybody but I do agree with sizing...18s would be nice

I would go HRE over TSW any day but thats just me. Also there are only so many ways to skin a cat.

Another knock off. Comes down personal preference
