Default Just purchased wheels - need opinions.

(TSW BREMMA WHEELS)

Just ordered these in polished silver, 19". I still have the opportunity to cancel the shipment. What do you guys think? Going on this:



JUST WANTED TO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT AFTER CONSIDERING THAT IT MIGHT LOOK LIKE AN AMG MERCEDES 350Z, I DECIDED AGAINST THE BREMMA WHEELS. THEN, ALTOGETHER, I DECIDED AGAINST HEAVIER WHEELS IN GENERAL. I LIKE FAST. FAST IS GOOD. HEAVY IS BAD.

JUST BOUGHT 19" RAYS ENGINEERING 5-SPOKE POLISHED SILVER NISMO WHEELS. THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT, GUYS!

My honest opinion they don't look bad but I have always loved a rim that has a lip to it on the Z.

If you like them, keep them. It's your car, and only you will have to live with the decision everyday. If you make a decision based on the majority of other people's opinions, whenever someone doesn't like them you will regret your decision.

I can never understand why people post threads like this.

I think that your stocks look way better than those ! Sorry.

If I had to say where you bought them at....I would say SEARS.

Good Luck with them if you keep um.

They're nice but I would keep the stock wheels and look for a different set.

This is a better idea as to what they look like in my application. Still think I should cancel? By the way, I'm not an Axis or Rota dealer so I can't get discounts like I do on TSW.

;D

It looks better with some lip. If you are getting a good deal and you like them go for it.

AMG-wanna-be wheels would not look right on your car IMO. Please cancel before you lose 75% of the price you pay trying to resell them in 3 months!

Plus I wouldn't trust TSW Wheels if my life depended on it!

I would get something like Rota wheels. Probably could get a 18" wheel/tire package for $1200.
