TSW mondello

[Rov'n]

ive been mocking up what these would look like on my car (1979 malibu - black) what do you guys think? black or polished? or maybe someone has a diffrent idea of what would look good...just trying to find the right wheel

I think a solid 5 spoke (not split/10) would look better with the boxier cars like your malibu. But if it was a black car, and you powdercoated the spokes black and left the lip polished it would look sweet either way.

I am not a fan of black wheels, but to each his own. Those wheels look good in polished!!:3gears:

I like those wheels. Simple and clean.

I started a thread about the TSW Montage a little while back. It's kinda like the Mondello except its a solid 5-spoke instead of split. I really like the black wheels look, but I'm not sure if it would go with any of the paint schemes I'm contemplating. Also, I have a couple questions on my mind regarding TSW wheels right now:

1) Quality? I've never seen a car with them, and I know nothing about their quality. Obviously, I'm not expecting Forgelines or anything, but only $207 a piece for 18's in silver finish is really cheap.

2) Do do they offer custom bolt patterns? They only have 5 x 120-mm listed, but I've heard that it will fit a chevy 5 x 4.75. I've also heard, however, that doing that isn't the best idea.

3) Do do they offer custom backspacing? The offsets they offer aren't what you'd want for a 1st gen Camaro. On their website, it says they offer the wheels with +20 to +49-mm, but I think a 4.5" backspace on an 8" rim (what I need for my fronts) is only like +12-mm offset.

I am not a fan of split spokes , I am more of a solid fan.
Just my opinion , has allot to do on the overall prject , and what direction you are going for.

I like black wheels on black , or darker colored cars , with a chrome or polished lip.

But once again , thats just my taste...
