New TSW max wheels

I just got the new tsw max wheels.They are 18x8.5 +15 w/255 40 18 front and 18x10 +25 w/285 35 18 in back. They are 5x120 so im using the wobble nuts and ARP studs for now till get time to redrill them .I like the way they turned out. What do you think?

Looks nice! I was eyeballing a set of the rockinghams, but I can't find them anywhere. I have severe wheel confusion.

I know the feeling. I looked for two months before I committed on a set.

I've narrowed it down to some polished iroc replicas, tsw rockinghams, or XXR 526's.

I like the xxr's but not the multi lug pattern.

Are you running adapters or are you lowered?

Re: New TSW max wheels

No adapter . Just 5 millimeter slip on spacers. Yes the car is lowered with springs.I am going to try and get it down a little bit more.
