Doesn't TSW stand for The Soft Wheel? I've heard that they bend easily.

I think this is it.
Had TSWs (not these) on my SUV if that means anything.

I'm running tsw volcanos and they've been holding up perfectly. Fit, finish, and durability all seem to be adequate so far.

The wheel shop I've been using the last 20 years says TSW are a decent quality wheel. I had a set in 93. The fit and finish was pretty darn good...I just didn't like the muscle car style that I had. The styles are much better now. Can't beat the price. Get them if you like them...they're safe.

Can you post some pics? I have 18" AZA now but am thinking of going to the 20" Thruxtons. What is the offsets you have now?

Sorry about the thread jacking.

When are you looking to get rid of those rims and how much?

Thanks!

I had some TSW Revos on a previous car. I kept them on the car for 4 years. Fit and finish were good. Never bent in the 4 years. One did crack like an egg, though, when I ran into the biggest pothole I didn't see (damn water puddle was hiding maybe a 1 foot deep pothole) - rim cracked and needless to say, the car was never the same.

I just recently ordered and received (last week) my TSW Volcanos.

Still waiting on the tires and 1 rim I exchanged due to chips during shipment. These are actually what I'm using as my winter setup. Yeah, I know, they're kinda pricey for a winter wheel, but I just can't bare to not have my car look half-decent (even in the winter) so no cheap winter wheels for me. Thus, my reason for going with the Volcanos. I'm keeping the stock sedan 18's for the summer (funny, I've never liked stock wheels, but these I like). I would've liked to put on some 19's for the summer. But in Chicago I need my ground clearance for the winter snows, so I have no plans of lowering the car. And, I don't like the fender gap with 18's, so I don't want to upset myself more by putting 19's on it without lowering the car. So, that's what I'm stuck with right now. I'll post some pics when I swap them...in a couple of months.
