tsw Nürburgring refurbished?

insane79 · 03-29-2013, 05:38 PM

Hi Guys,
I m getting a used set of tsw nurburgring rims for my car from a local seller in my area, according to the seller the rims are painted & refurb but i find them hard to believe as the finish looks pretty similar to the tsw factory finish, can anyone see the pix & give their inputs?

Thanks..

They look great to me. Today wheel repair is pretty much a perfect art, they could very well have been repainted. Why would he tell you they have,

if they were new? If the price is right....might be a good deal.

I have those exact wheels, bought them off a member here. Those look super clean. They look pretty mint, but if the seller says they were repainted/refurbished, I'd believe him. How much is he asking for them (if you don't mind my asking)?

Hi,
Do these look similar to the ones you got? in color match & shade?

Thanks.

Yea it looks pretty much spot on. Mine look a little bit more matte (not as much shine as in the second pic) but that's cuz they're dirty and havent' been washed yet.

added a 3rd pic now, is the barrel part of the wheel where there is a sticker "rotary forged" actually a different shade then the face of the wheel, you can notice it?

Thanks..

Yes, it is visibly darker than the faces, and you can clearly see a line where the color changes - but who cares? That area never sees the light of day when tires are mounted

Yea I have tires mounted on mine so I can't see the outside of the actual rim.
