Default TSW Spirits

I just bought a set from TSW(17x7) for 99 bucks each. It came out to like 460 bucks with tax and shipping. It should look cool with a yellow car.
What is the cheapest 205/45/17 Available?

Get Kumo 712 Ectsas. They are really, really good tires and probably one of the cheapest you can buy.

Kuhmos I work at a wheel shop, those tires are the shiznit. We sell them like they are goiung out of style and they have AA traction A temperature and 280 treadwear and are v rated. <a href="http://www.tirerack.com" target="_blank">www.tirerack.com[/url]</a> under a hundred bucks a piece cant beat that.

Actually fit and finish on the TSW Spirits is excellent. The Spirit it manufactured by the Italian company MAK wheels who make lots of good stuff.

My set has held up well to harsh motorsport abuse and the gold coating has not discoloured even when heated to 200+F after a lapping session.

The only thing to be wary of is curbing them as the spokes stick out further then the tire sidewall. You cannot go through automated car washes and you must be very careful when parking.

Overall an excellent wheel and they go fantastic on a midnight blue or black car, I get compliements all the time. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
