Time to Descide... TSW vs Vertini

[Melbnut]

Evening all,

Looking for opinions here. I am down to two maybe three choices of wheel and i have run through a very long list (shoutout to Paul from N4S for answer a lot of questions).

Car is a Race red GT with roush vents and a black roof.

TSW Bathurst or maybe even the Geneva in matte gunmetal
Vertini RF1.1 gloss black

Looking for opinion from anyone who has seen these combo in the flesh as well as anyone who knows much about the brand. My local shop (unfortunately its cheaper to buy these locally) is strongly pushing TSW and has suggested that they are just better wheels, but i am leaning towards the vertini as they look a bit different

I've got the Bathurst's on my Magnetic and love them.

Someone else on the forum has them on a Race Red and they really pop.

Looks are always a personal choice, but I will say that I'm strongly considering the TSW Geneva as well. Both the Geneva and the Bathurst are flow formed, so you'll enjoy the benefits of a lighter, stronger barrel. I can't speak on the Vertinis since I'm not familiar with the brand. TSW has been around forever though and they do make quality stuff.

All three wheel choices are rotory forged

I like the Vertini RF1.1 because not a lot of people have them, so I factor that in.

Looks good!!

What about wheel quality between them? I am leaning towards the Vertini just as Paul said there are not a lot around. They are a little bit different

Both great quality wheels.

I have a pic here I'll upload later of the geneva on a black gt... Look good. I think I don't want the gunmetal thought decision may have been made

I think Vertini give you a more exotic look and its sexier than bathurst.

agree 100%... i think the decision is made.. gloss black (pity they dont do a matte finish) vertini.. Hopefully staggered 20x10 and 20x11... Just hope the wheel place knows their stuff. i want to make sure they sit flush.

I just received my M350's from Need 4 Speed. Delivered right to my door, price was all inclusive.

It's best to check the offsets and work out how the new wheels will sit compared to the OEM wheels.

Apart from clearing brakes sometimes the offsets are too low a number and this moves the wheel out. For example, a 10.5" Velgen VMB9 at +45 will move out more than the 11" M350 at +55.

Cheers

TSW Bathurst... I'll leave this here:

But you can't go wrong really with either choice.

I've got 20x10s all the way around. Dropped on BMR Springs. Unfortunately I don't have any real good pictures yet as I've been too lazy to take them when the car is actually clean.
