Not my favorite wheel, but it does have HUGE lip. Plus someone once said TSW = Too Soft Wheels.

No.
I have a friend with them. I do not like the way the spokes go in so early makes them look tiny.

I'll buck the trend and say I like them. It wouldn't be my first choice, but I don't think they look bad at all.

FUGLY. It's the cheapest looking wheel TSW has.

i have a DG coupe, and went with TSW Lagunas. Huge lip - 4 1/2" rear, 2 3/4" front, and no fake rivets.

i know truplay thinks they look like thruxtons gone retarded - but hey, I love them. They're very easy to clean too.

I don't like any fake 3 piece wheels, and cleaning is a big issue. I had TSW Hockenheim R's in the days of my GTI VR6 (I think they're like a fairly common Penta style wheel) and they were nice, but a pain to clean.
