Wheel opinion needed - TSW Choices

Ok, so which ones do you guys/gals like better? I'm planning on staggering.

TSW Thruxton (18x8 and 18x9.5)
TSW Laguna (18x8 and 18x9.5)
TSW Kyalami (18x8 and 18x9.5)

I thought about going to 20s, but I hear it's really just for looks, not performance, so I'm sticking to 18s.

Thanks for the 4 votes, I was hoping for more after 50 people looked at it...

I would think those wheels would look too small in an 18". A 19" would look great though.

I say Thruxton's but I'm a lilttle biased.





I'm thinking about selling them and getting something new, so if you want them, PM me.

Blullitt05, what size are your Thruxtons? 18's? They look great on your car.

Oh BTW to the OP, I say go with the Thruxtons, I've seen them on several Mustangs and they fit the car really well.

Those are gorgeous wheels for sure. What tire size are you running? The thing with those wheels is that the spokes start so far from the tire instead of going right to the lip like the fanblades for example. It gives the impressions that they are a smaller diameter than they actually are.
