Default Old school TSW wheels

Can anyone point me in the direction of somewhere where I might be able to get some old school wheels from. Anything such as evo, evo-r , hockenheim, blades etc.

Any pics of cars with the above wheels on would be great as a little sweetner.

I understand that any of the older TSW wheels will be hard to get hold of so ill start my search now, I definately want something age specific.


Cheers for any help.

OOOOOhhhh my god this thread is sooooo up my street. Im one of these who is finding it hard to get over the fact that we arent in the 90s anymore. I used to love seeing people going round with tsw venoms etc, on cars like orion mk2s with the rs dress up kit etc etc.

I recently found myself a set of 17inch wolfrace voodoos for my series2, for that old skool look. I had a set of 17'' tsw evo r's on my first car, i absolutely loved those wheels, about 8 years ago when i started driving at 17.

Anymore pics people?

Yeah know what u mean mate, they kinda went into their grave and no one wanted to bring them back out, but other 90s wheels like my voodoos, tsw evo r's, and tsw evos and momo ones pictured get old skool respect from people in the know.
