damn that really looks like the volk sf-winning...

they look good, but people have said that the quality is really low on rims that cost this cheap. personally i wouldn't mind sporting these around, but many people here want the baller rims... lol

i say if you like them get them!

I have those exact ones on my Cl Type-S. Not bad for the money. They're cast wheels, but the finish is decent and they look good for the $$$. DO IT!!!

you should get you some of these aliiin. They will go perfect with your car and i personally think these look better than your TSW, not saying your TSW not good but these are crazy aggressive and would fit your Front TS perfect
