They look like they are 16's in that pic. lol. I bet they would look good in 20's though.

I think the Maribeau look the best.

You won't find them on a car yet. TSW is just now getting stock of them. I am working with Mike to maybe be the first Mustang with them. So far it is looking good. Just gotta get the wife on bored with dropping that kind of coin. It normally involves me dropping the same amount of coin into her vehicle at the same time lol.

That is just TSW's website car viewer thing they have. You can selest each wheel and see them on the vehicle. If I go with those, it will either be the 19 or 20.

The interlagos and nurburgring are rotary forged just like the Forgestar wheels which makes them very lightweight. The problem I have with them is they literally have no concave to them.

Here's a pic of the interlagos we did on a camaro for reference.

How much heavier do you think the Maribeaus would be compared to the Interlagos.

Is there anychance the 20" alloy wheels TSW makes would be the same weight or maybe lighter than the stock Ford 18x8 since they are cast?

They are 30lbs which is about 10% lighter then the factory 19" wheels. This is in the 19x9.5 configuration.

Forgestar also makes a 10 spoke style but it has a concave and looks MUCH better.

Here's a camaro we did with those for reference.

2-3lbs per wheel.

The car doesn't look bad at all in person, it also has pin-striping on the wheels which looks good. It just sucks that they are not concave at all. I am also partial to it because its clean, sounds bad ass, and is pretty darn fast.

So not really enough to worry about.
