Although i know its an old post thought i d give the photoshoping a go to see what they would look like so here's the results....

Dennis: thanks, I already saw your photoshoping, but malett wrote month ago that he already have new wheels so I thought it will be great if he will post some "real" photos

Btw: Sometimes I play with photoshop too, this is result of my yesterday work. This is Mak Matrix Mirror 18" which are for now my choice nr.1 for spring

Don't be surprise by small brake disk, its from VW GTI rear wheel

A quick note on the TSW Rocket 5's I fitted to the Civic. As you will prob know I did not get along with the car and sold it on after 6mths, replace the old wheels onto the car and kept the TSW's in the yard at home.

2 days ago wennt to check the size / fitting of the wheels so I could advertise them for sale, only to find ALL of them were covered in corrosion

. The clear coat had lifted on the polished spokes and they are ruined, this on a set of wheels that were bought last Aug and covered about 3,000km use on the car.

Am now trying to get a refund / replacement set but am posting this to warn anyone thinking of changing their wheels, be careful of TSW's and keep a close eye on them if you do / have already bought a set of them.
