Default TSW or Privat Black Mesh Wheels. Looking for opinions.

Going to get a set of black mesh for my GS. Due to budget Im not able to afford VS-XX's so its down to these two for my price range. Which is the better looking wheel?

Privat Netz

and then Tsw Valencia

[QUOTE=blacksedan;8266390]TSW gets my vote out of the two.




I'm feeling the TSW's as well so far.

Oh and heres one more contender. Axis Penta. Its a Hyper Black though.

Feel free to offer any better options in the $300 a wheel price range.

How much could I get a good used set of VS-XX's for?

Do they even produce the Penta anymore?

As for the VS-XX's, you may be able to find some in the low-mid 2K range. Honestly, it'd probably be in your best interest to check out either VR Wheels or one of the 350z/G35/37 forums, I always see them come up over there.

They're all very similar designs in which I don't think you can go wrong either way.

Here's what the Pentas look like on a GS

Honestly, if you're considering the TSW, Privat or VS-XX.... get the VS-XX; the other two don't even compare. However, if it's only between the TSW and Privat, I think the TSW's look better out of the two.
