Did you call to get this info, as its not posted on their website.

Thanks though..

It is right under the description, second line down. Has the offset, then under it states 29 lbs.

 

I'm following this thread with a great deal of interest... RTRs are the best looking aftermarket wheel for S197s..and I think the smaller offset makes them look pretty cool.. It's not like the wheels are hanging out of the sides of the car...it's just a subtle, wider stance...not "Larry Craig" or anything.

...so the larger offset isn't a selling point for the SVE Drift wheels for me...but these are a lot cheaper and nearly as good looking.

BTW, how much do the stock 19" wheel options weigh for our cars? Are these significantly heavier?

 

LOVE the sve's! i'm going with silver!

 

Do they come in 19x9.5? What I saw was only 18s in their ad?

 

Yes they come in 19x9.5

From what Ive heard on here, factory wheels are significantly heavier.

They look good. I paid more for my RTRs but the powder coating really works well for me. I would have liked to save some money but am happy with mine.

 

Didn't see that...not bad actually. I think you mean 28lbs.

Anybody have pics of the Silver RTR 19" wheels on a WHITE 5.0L?

 

Very few people have the Silver RTR's, and I have only seen them on Hytek's car on this site.

 

TSW's are much flatter looking than the RTR's. Nice wheel, but not the same. RTR's have sexy curves.

 

yep, and the fronts on the TSW's seem to tuck a dash while the rears push the fender lips.

 

You're right. They are also lighter, stronger and less expensive but that might not be important to you.

 

I priced both and they came out pretty close. It took seeing them both on cars for me to decide. RTRs do have a nice shape to them over the TSWs. Would have been fine either way but I like how my car looks ith the RTRs. Lowering the car makes them look just about perfect to me. The weight difference a pound or two us not a big deal for a daily driver like my car but if I was racing I am sure lighter would be the optimum choice. As for more money I say pay more for something you want or like you never know when your days are up, why not enjoy!

 

Relax. I like the TSW's, and they do have many great size and offset options. Just correcting an incorrect statement about their looks. If you own them, enjoy them. BTW, unless one gets a special price, they're not much cheaper than RTR's.

 

Personally, I like my 23lb wheels. They are ASA GT5's in 19x9. I can fit a 285 on there just fine. I would like to be able to go with a wider tire once I go supercharged though. That's a few years off. But for the price and the weight, I'll keep these for quite awhile. I think I paid $210 per back when I bought them.

 

Look very similar to the RTR's!
NICE, never been a fan of the black wheels though......but glad you like them!

I have those tires on the SALEEN....they are super loud!!! how do you like yours?

 

These look so good. Are they black or gun metal finish?

 

They were very quiet at first. Now that the rear tires have more than 50% wear, they're getting louder. Fronts look to have about 20% wear. My main gripe is that even in the heat of summer, I can't get really good traction from them in first and second when getting on it hard. Guess I'll end up going with something with an even lower tread wear rating.
