**pangster** · Wednesday 16th July 2008, 20:53

does anyone have TSW legends fitted to their Volvo's? - (in particular a C70)?? and if so any chance of a pic? lol!

Off-topic I know but I'm selling my TSW Rocket 5s. Let me know if you're interested, I have pics on my V70R, thanks.

thanks for the reply.. not a fan of the rockets though.. pretty much have my mind made up.. just wondered if anyone had any pics..

I don't think that you need a picture of them on a C70. They will look the dogs cahoonhas them. The dark alloys always look smart. I'd like to change mine but there is no way that the handbrake will let me do it.

i guess we'll soon see! lol!

here's a pic of them on an A6:

these are 19's on a mondeo:

and one of them on a golf:

couldn't find a pic of them on a volvo - anywhere on the net! lol!.. i think the black centres and polished lip might look quite good against the cassis paintwork..

My guess is they'll look great.

Bear me in mind if your selling your current wheels

.........

PS Car sounds great - saw (heard?) you at lunchtime today!

lol!- that wasn't lunch time.. that was finishing time for me a Thursday!

one of the main reasons for the new wheels is that the existing ones all need a refurb - varying degrees of lacquer peel and slight curb rash on a couple (not caused by me - i'll add! lol!).. and one of the rims has a slight dent in it where it was introduced to a pothole on Crew Road South! and i don't have any other wheels for it.. coupled with the fact that they are genuine split rims and most refurb companies won't touch them up here, just makes it a bit of a headache! lol!..

once they're off the car i'm thinking about getting them refurbed properly (i'll be able to send them away! lol!) and will then either sell them or keep them and return the car back to original when selling.. if i do decide to sell them though i'll keep you in mind and give you first refusal..

I got a quote of about £320 for a full refurb on 18 tritons, from this place in Airdrie.

They have done a refurb/repair for me before and it was good

just for info

thanks for that Jase.. i'll bear them in mind and give them a shout when i get round to refurbing the tritons..

I've just ordered a set of the 18" TSW Legends so with any luck i might even have them delivered and fitted by the rolling road next weekend..

You don't muck about Pangster!

Looking forward to seeing your new wheels installed next w/end.

thanks mate! - i'm hoping i'll get a chance to get round to getting them swapped over! lol! - i should have them in 2-3 days and will then need to get the Pirelli P-Zero's on the tritons swapped over and have them balanced etc.. but i've just found out i'm working away part of next week!! arrgghh!! i might try and get thursday or friday off though! lol!

can't wait! lol! - should look really good.. i've not seen another Cassis C70 up here and definately not one with these alloys so should make it even more unique!

i've done a comparison shot with my BBS Tritons and the TSW Legends below:

BBS Tritons:

TSW Legends:

Pretty similar wheels when you look at them next to one another.. although the TSW Legends have more of a dish to them and more elongated spokes.. and they're not split rims! lol!..

**pangster** · Monday 21st July 2008, 11:26

i've just called them up to check on delivery and they told me that my wheels wont be getting shipped for around another 3 weeks as they are waiting on tuner lug nuts being made for my car... apparantly they are a rare size for Vovlo's.. does this sound normal or is it BS??..

**Jaseb77** · Monday 21st July 2008, 13:26

3 weeks, boo hiss, thats poor.

its always the same buy something on the net, and then be told ooh-eer we dont really have that just now.
