Norevlimitr lol
Tiger Sport Wheels?! Lol I never would've guessed that!
First time I heard of them someone was calling them "Too Soft Wheels" and it's been stuck like that in my head since. The real name is almost as bad.
RIGHT?!
Lol same and i owned a pair of them
So you're telling me naming my next company *DQW* - Duck Quack Wheels is not good a idea?
TheBobes 😂
working at Discount Tire and owning a set of TSWs Im like the direction TSW is going!
I got a set of TSW Imolas from the 90s they look beautiful on my VW mk3
Beauty of a Rim here in SA they Gold.. .especially in 17"
Awesome! I learned a bunch! I honestly didn't know where tsw came from or that they where such a large company! But i absolutely love my 17" snettertons on my mk5 Jetta
Glad you learned something!
RippyTheRazer do vossen
@@idg1216ig Vossen are expensive af
Still running a 1990 Hockenheim wheel they made. Bought the new Bathurst model and they are still top notch fit and finish.
Super interested for the continuation of this series. I really enjoy the presentation and dissemination of the info. I also really appreciated the wheel gallery. Helped me narrow down my next set of wheels.
That's what we are here for! Glad you enjoyed man!
I work with Discount Tire. And it's so nice how cheap these are to employees of discount.
Same dude, they're so damn cheap for us
Wanna get me some tsw sebrings
@@deville8232 I wish I could I no longer am with the company
I just bought a set of TSW's from a dude that worked for Discount... It all makes sense now!
TSW needs to bring back the classic Evo 7 spoke wheel with the center cap hex nut, always been my favorite aftermarket wheel to this day.
JET MAR they have
@@davidsegovia8778 I did see that only in 19" ad 20" and it's rotary forged. Also brought back the Hockenheims too.
In the UK these were the #1 max power (ricer scene) wheels in the early 2000s, especially tsw venoms witch love curb rash
I have a set of Rouge wheels, and I'm pretty sure they're cast. They looked good new, but they seem to scratch and pit easily, and they are on the soft side. (I bent two rims on a barely moderately size pot hole.) They weren't terribly expensive ($250/each for 19"), but unless you like to keep buying new rims because you scratched or bent them, I don't recommend TSW.
Hi, just a update on this video, I worked at GoodRoads for over 25 years and now for TSW wheels, and I want to inform you all, RUFF Racing, Status Alloys, Tuff A/T and XO Luxury wheels are going to be bigger and badder then ever. In the past 8 months We have many new styles being built for each of these brands, a few have trickled in already and 2019 is going to blow your minds with the new styles with those 4 brands. We are extremely excited, So fortunately for our brand fans, we have a bright future coming. Stay tuned.
Just purchased TSW Kemora's on yalls website for my GR86. Can't wait!
Do a video on O.Z racing wheels
Sure!
TSW made a set or two of 2 piece wheels. Not the 2 piece where the face unbolts from the barrel, but the welded kind. Aka, the non modular kind.
You guys really make some of the best wheel content out there! Keep it up!
Really appreciate that John!
I got TSW's on the GTO and I absolutely love them. Gooo Tiger Sport Wheels!! 🤦
Hey I am from South Africa but I never knew they re originally from South Africa... Wow no wonder they are huge in South Africa and many old school Toyota are rocking TSW
I used to work for the Manufacturing plant in Babelegi. Unfortunately they closed down years ago. Was one of the best and new tech companies to have worked for.
one of the most informative series out there! Its all really valuable information for the community. keep it up guys!
Thanks, Brian! That's what we are here for!
TSW were extremely popular with the Max Power (the UK boy racer) scene in the 1990s and I remembered them for being reasonably priced. Since then is that how they lost their place to Team Dynamics...who is also run by a racing driver
Way under rated. You're videos are great dude and I honestly learn alot , I feel better about those brands everyone steers clear from cuz I see hella nice cheap wheels and they get all the hate lol . Thanks bro .
For 90s vw like Golfs 2 and 3 TSW imola 17" are old school gold in SA🇿🇦
South Africa here
How about Vossen? Or ADV.1? Thanks!
Its on the docket!
I’m ready to see Vossen to!!!
Yeah man we wanna see vossen
My shop has actually carried TSW for decades. When they started out they produced many replica style wheels but now are true to their own designs. They also do have a few 2 piece welded wheels in their main lineup. However unlike other brands, TSWs 2 piece wheel offsets are already pre determined and are not customizable unfortunately.
How so? In what country have you carried them
Wow.
Here I was thinking that TSW was a South Korean company. I also had no Idea that TSW is an acronym for "Tiger Sport Wheels".
Thank Christ they decided to shorten their name.
Right.
Please do HRE, CCW and Fifteen52
Konig too please
All in the works!
Fitment Industries Thanks
do 1552 have any history to talk about?
that would be like a one minute long video
great series, thanks for this guys, keep it up. 37yo wheel collector
Thank you!
Awesome vid bro! I bought Caldwells years ago and love them. All my center caps broke off though 😢😢
Thank you Robert!
I got to say I love all the videos and all the knowledge you guys put out there on all the Wheels some of them are good and some of them are bad stuff I'm sure most of us did not know so thank you for that it's very hard to decide what kind of Wheels one wants when you hear bad things about the company or the quality so I thank you for that
That's what we are here for man! Glad you enjoy our content!
I have TSW Acent on my BMW E34
Hoping to upgrade to some BBS
How the fuck do you not have more subs this channel and the website are next level
Thanks Dylan! Spread the word?
Fitment Industries for sure
Corporate monopolies in the aftermarket wheel industry are terrible for consumers. I purchased a set of 3 piece forged 24s for my truck back in 2009 for about $2,500. Nowadays you are lucky to get a set of 2 piece 18s at that price.
When few companies own most of the market they can charge whatever they want for a lower quality product.
Just found your channel and binge watched the videos. Great content guys!
Let’s see history of Option Lab Wheels and their subsidiaries.
🙅🏼♂️
Thanks Josh! We can def add it to the list!
I fee like every vid I have to see a diagram or hear the words rotary forged mentioned in a wheel history vid. However still an amazing vid and learn something almost every time.
Damn I didn’t know TSW’s were so popular
I used to have the Tsw Venoms (17) on my Honda civic Eg9 back in the day....1995
Hey! Love the vid! Was starving for a new history of wheels and was glad when I saw it in my notifications box.
Glad you enjoyed Billy!
I have the black Oslos at 5:30 They are awesome wheels and Rotary Forged wheels.
Do you still feel the same?
Great vids, idea for u guys vid about wheel accessories. Lugnuts, centercaps, valve stems, refinishing rebarreling etc.
Also ive order some 18x9.5 that im planning on reusing my current tires on(falken azenis 615k+) there 225/40 18s. Im fairly certain they’ll work with a little stretch, just wondering of dealership is gonna give me any trouble about mounting them with a stretch
Most places here in Wisconsin won't mount a stretched setup for liability purposes. But its worth a shot man!
Yoooo that's sick thanks for the win!
Make sure to shoot us an email!
Do F1R wheels next im looking at the F21s but i hear on a couple different forums that they can be anywhere from one of the best budget rims to "sketchy quality at best"
It's on the docket!
Super helpful content. Had no idea they were that big into acquisitions
Thanks Bryon🙏🏽 We are covering WCI next!
Now I have to check out their rotary forged wheels. Good thing I have a Discount Tire Direct credit card for them financing options.
Good video!
Just upset that you didn't talk about the 90's TSW wheel models…
They were HUGE POPULAR back then!
- Imola
- Hockenheim / Hockenheim R
- Blade
- EVO
etc…
I mean you talked about TSW but not about their ''golden age''…
what I look up to the yellow wheels im on the left
Awesome vids, website is super easy to navigate and also informative!
Would eventually like to see a vid on track lite wheels
Thanks, Mattew! Stay tuned we har a TON of content coming!

Hey Fitment Industries, I know This gonna sound weird but just hear me out. I am currently the president of my high school car club and we are hosting a car show on March 31st 12-3 pm at the Cinco Ranch High School of Katy, Texas. This is where the weird part starts... we would be grateful if you guys could come and join us for the show! We had hosted a car show the previous year but it was rather small and had little variety (it was 90% mustang filled). I have video of the car show from last year if you are interested! If you have any further information, just HMU with a message!
-Thanks
Fenton
Email us the video and info on the show and we will see what we can do!
Mario@fitmentindustries.com
Don't know if your website is glitching but I can't enter anything past the wheel brand name option.....I find it hard to believe there are zero results for my car in 5x110 19x9 +41
And dumb question but if I want to slightly poke.....I adjust offset to a SMALLER number?
Do a tire brand series
We can definitely do that!
Tigers are fast yo! Lol. You finally did one I requested! Now Lexani please?!
Lmao! Did you like it? and we will put it on the docket!
Fitment Industries likes it....but discount tire? Lmao
Could you please do a run down of the wheels on display in the background?
What is the name of the bronze wheel in the top row between the red and silver ones cuz those are so nice
Rohana RFX7
My TSW Sluggers are corroded to hell. I was thinking about getting them restored since all the chrome is flaking off and the corrosion is everywhere. Would it be worth it to get them restored to a black powder coat for $150 a wheel or just buy new wheels?
Honestly id buy new wheels! Which we can help you with ;)
Lmao ordered TSWs from Fitment before even seeing this vid, absolutely in love with my GTI lately.
Tsw stealths big on corollas in Ireland hard to get with caps
Thanks for the TSW video! ☺
Your welcome!
I still have my TSW Blades that I bought new back in 1997. Direct fitment for my e30. AND not one scratch to show after 25 years of pounding NY STREETS.!!1!
Huh... That was interesting. Don't know how I ended up here but, well... that's youtube for you
4:44 Thanks for the info.
💓 My 5 spoke TSW wheels! Im in need suggestions for what color ta powder coat them? They are on a all satin satin black 05 LS430.
Can you do a video on 5Zigen wheels please?
Sure!
Just waiting for this channel to blow up 🤷🏽♂️ hopefully it stays good and doesn't go to shit like the rest of the people who blow up. Stay humble amigos.

Still think TSW are great value. Got 19's on Kumho's for a little over $1400. If you're wanting to spend less than that, I guess everybody has a different take on getting what you pay for.
True
Awesome video! Could you do ADV.1 next?
We definitely can! Coming soon...😈
