    Not many people are aware that TSW actually makes some amazingly high quality Rotary Forged/Flow Formed VW wheels at a ridiculously affordable price!

    Flow form casting is a production procedure that turns the wheel (or rim section) over a special mandrel and three hydraulic rollers using tremendous pressure. The pressure and turning then force the rim area to form against the mandrel, creating the shape and width of the rim. During flow forming, the rim actually "flows" down to create the full rim width. During flow forming, pressure applied to the cast rim actually changes its mechanical properties, so its strength and impact values become similar to those of a forged rim.
    In the Hierarchy of wheel manufacturing processes it goes:
    1. Cold Forging (DPE, HRE, iForged, etc; ~$1000+ per wheel)
    2. Rotary Forging (BBS, Advan, Forgestar, Rays, TSW RF)
    3. Low Pressure Cast (Avant Garde)
    4. Gravity Cast (Most aftermarket wheels)

    TSW Nurburgring
    Matte Bronze

    Matte Gunmetal

    Machined Gunmetal

    TSW Interlagos
    Matte Black

    Machined Silver

    Do you have pics of the bronze Nurbs on a tempest blue mk6 Jetta or similarly coloured golf?

    Sorry, I highly doubt that setup has ever been attempted before. But I have a feeling it will look sick!

    In any case, here are some blue cars running the Nurburgrings:

    Jason,

    Any pics of the Silver Intrlagos on a white Golf or GTI?

    Might be interested in a set. Any onhand at your shop for a test fit? I'm local.

    Its strange, I personally like the Interlagos more than the Nurburgring; but almost all my customers have been going with the Nurburgrings.
    I've been really wanting to set someone up with the Interlagos but none of my customers have made the plunge yet.

    We dont have the wheels here at our warehouse for test fitting, however I can get a set of these here within a day if ordered.

    I would really love to get a set out there so I can get some photos!

    What is the weight of the 19" nurburgings and what are their centerbores? Are they 57.1 or do they require rings?

    You can view all the wheel weights on TSW's website here

    But for your reference:
    18x8" 18.6lbs
    18x8.5" 19.5lbs
    19x8" 20.55lbs
    19x8.5" 21.4lbs


    The wheels are made with a 72/73mm CB, however hub rings will be provided with every order!
