Damn 3K for wheels is just .... But damn the weight is fantastic on those wheels.

3k for forged wheels is a normal price.

Oh I know. I just could not see myself spending that kind of money for wheels.

~$600/wheel is NOT bad for forged. That ~$500 shipping charge puts it in the league of other common forgings that you *can* get here.

~15.5lbs for 18x9 is pretty insane though.

Gotta be a way to get them shipped cheaper

I think I found an inexpensive replica wheel from STR that looks similar.

Does anyone have experience with STR?

The point of getting the TWS would be the weight not the looks, and those arent really even a copy but a similar design.

Definitely a copy. Just a shit one.

Can't see a cast wheel of this design taking a single pot hole hit and surviving.

These wheels look great. :)

Imagine how many of these wheels (across all platforms) a vendor would sell here if they were the US distributor.

I'm looking at you CSG :brokenheart:

Muahahaha. I can't disclose anything yet, but a little birdie tells me...oh shoot boss is coming in. :D

Tom's wheels seems pretty light, too.
17x7 +47 is 6 kg (13.2lb) per wheel
also forged

17x8 +42 is 6.32 kg (about 13.9 lbs). Too bad they're so darn expensive, though for what you get it's not bad at all.
