Hi There!

TSW's are fine & quite good looking, although on the downside they are quite a soft rim.

Therefore if you hit a pot-hole you could find yourself forking unesscary money on replacement's.

I would pay the extra & pick up some better quality OZ's.

P.s. By the way may mate had some TSW Blades on his Fiesta RS1800 about 4 years ago. Guess what? He hit a pot-hole & had to fork out over £100 for a replacement. Yes it costs a hell of a lot more money paying for one wheel rather than buying a set with tyres.

He tried to get some money out of the local council but they wouldn't have any of it. Later that year the full strip of the road was relayed (Tw*T's!!)

Cheers

OZ might be better than TSW but still I've read somwhere on here that the Superleggera tends to bend quite easily too. Might be a good idea to check out what's worth having.
