Too heavy and not wide enough.
Wanting a 19x10.5 and it is alot lighter than factory wheels.
Saves ALOT of rotational weight.

If u like the srt wheels they look fine but they are not a upgrade.

Id love to see them on a car. Also, TSW typically isn't hub-centeric for German made vehicles. This means, hub rings, and that means battling vibrations from time to time. Be careful and be prepared. God forbid you use a shop with a wheel balancer out of spec.

Other wise, lighter, wider, should be better!

You are correct they are not hubcentric even though they are ordered with the correct hub size. And getting the correct size is a pain...I had to sit and file mine down until they fit perfectly. -(hubcentric rings)

Would just be getting the "metal" hubcentric rings, and permantly mounting them on wheels.
Problem solved, and no spacers needed.

Lighter, wider and "stronger"
If a shop balancer is out it does not matter what rims and tires you have.
As long as the rings are mounted and can not "walk, or move" there would not be any problems with vibrations

I ordered my wheels from TSW and had to call them back for hubcentric rings. The ones they sent fit the hubs but wouldnt fit into the wheels. I would get the plastic rings if I were you, I have had metal ones before and they are a pain. I like those wheels by the way , they are close to what I got.
