Anyone running these? Comments? Problems?
I like some of the styles, but not sure on the quality?
TSW has a new wheel out called the Rascasse that I want now, but they are not even being made yet.

We've run them on our Tempest for 5+ years, no problems. Dan Howe has them on his Monte and his El Camino project. We've also ran them on a couple other shop cars, never had a failure on 200 treadwear's. They are pretty nice for the price.
But they're available in limited offsets as you may have seen, and bolt patterns. The clearcoat will chip over time if you get a machined lip.. and be prepared to either not be able to run center caps, and/or machine out the center of the wheels to clear your wheel hubs & caps. They're designed for tuner cars primarily, or other cars that don't have much of a center hub diameter or depth.

Thanks for the info Dale. Was looking at the 526 in black and didn't know how the finish is compared to TSW's.

I will be ordering a set within the next week or so. Ive been debating on these or having a set of wheels made. My car is in pieces at the moment so im unable to measure anything. Car is a 71 chevelle. Would like to run 20x9, and 20x11. We shall see, what it will take.

I too have a 71 Chevelle that I bought 18x9.5 TSW Valencia's for, but didn't like the fit. I put those on my 72 Elco and they look way better. I decided to go with TSW Monaco's in 18x8.5 and 18x10.5.
