Default Wheel Opinion, New TSW Design

So i recently cracked a Volk, and started looking for new wheels. Yes i know people have mixed opinions on these wheels but im curious to see what you all think about it, and im tired of spending $400 a wheel. It comes in a decent offset (+20), and has a 3" lip, 9.5" width i also realize things are going more concave now but im just asking for an opinion in general. Not on the quality of the wheel, the label, or the amount of pieces the wheel is made of. Im asking about the look of the wheel.

I think a wheel with a design like this belongs on a domestic vehicle. I can't imagine it looking good on a Z. To me it looks very cheap.

Tsw has some nice new wheels but most will knock you because they're budget wheels.They look good though

Where are the pics of that dude that put Mustang wheels on his Z? That could be a useful comparison IMO. They may not look all that bad. But then again I'm a Volk snob so what's my opinion worth?

Pics of cracked Volks???

You didnt crack a Volk, you said in the local Texas section you cracked a ROTA TORQUE!

STOP trying to make Volks look bad dude...you fail.

Seems to me that you knew you would catch chit if you said it was a Rota....yes?

Yeah dude those Mustang wheels don't look that bad as much as its painful to say. I think your stance and lip are what pull it off, nice car!

And did I miss something or did the OP just get CLOWNED!!!! Trying to pass Rotas off as Volks, what the hell were you thinking?????? No wonder he wont post pics of his cracked wheels...
