I had used the replica SSR Type C and the original SSR rims respectively.

 

Preference goes to the original rims.

Hi all I think TS refer in to Stamford Sport Wheel, house brand rim by Stamford Tyres.

 

Of cos can't compare to ssr in terms of casting process n weight, but still usable for daily motoring n enhancing ur ride look. Some dsn look same as replica of actual brand rims. May b considering changin since not changin ride.

 

But I oso didn't know they have forged ones. Have picture to show?

Very good. Had my SSWs on my car for the past 4 track days and they are still true. They are 15" S007 with 195/55R15 tyres though so YMMV.

 

The rims are heavy but light on your wallet.

i used to hear ppl telling me light weight rims saves u petrol. till i experience it myself.

 

used to drive an sti wif prodrive gc05 18". fc was ard 9km/l. then sold it off and was on stock sti rims (very heavy) for awhile till the new set of gc010 arrived. fc all the way was 9km/l even fitted wif the 17" prodrive gc010. only diff? can feel rolling resistance better than stock ones for only for awhile till everything feels the same again.

 

current car running on 19" ssr and bloody heavy. fc is much better than friends driving the same make wif smaller and lighter rims.

 

so i concluded big rim small rim heavy rim or light rim doesn't hv too much fc impact on ur car. if u like the rims, juz go ahead. lol
