I drove on TE37SL vs ES222 one after another for winter/summer and with the same tire sizes, I could not tell the difference at all.
I can't comment on ROTA's because they have nothing but bad rep.
I had a bunch of different Work wheels like bomarchers, vs-xx, gnosis series and etc and I could not tell the difference from them versus those shitty TSW wheels. Yeah I felt like a baus but in the end, I feel like a turd for spending 5k on wheels on my, back then worth 40k, 350z.
Good for you if you do! Go ahead and do take advantage of that 0.2 second in 0-100km/h and that 1.x second per lap.
But for me, I will no longer spend a shit load of money on wheels that will get me from point a to point b in the same way.
Like I said, I know for a fact that most of us do NOT track our cars.
Look at it this way:
2010 Audi A5 + $5k wheels
vs
2010 Audi S5
I hope you chose the S5.

Why so much hate on people spending good money on quality wheels? IMO, why would you replace good factory wheels with something not as good? I would have zero issues putting $5k wheels on a s5 or a5
With lighter wheels, forget about lap times, how your car responds to potholes and ruts in the road is worth it alone.
