TOMASON TN25 Super Light

Black painted

The Tomason TN 25 in 8.5x19 inches weigh 8.85 kg, which is slightly more than specified. The color could be a little stronger, but that's complaining on a high level. Basically, the rims are very well made and the 10-spoke design fits any sporty car. The delivery was pretty quick and the customer support was absolutely great. I did not use the wheel nuts supplied. Instead, I fitted RAYS Dura Nuts L42 - looks better in combination with the bronze-colored rims than the boring silver wheel nuts. In addition, the rims are fitted with 245/35 tires - the perfect width in my eyes.

The Tomason TN25 Super Light live up to their name: they are exceptionally light for cast rims. Very unusually light, especially in this price range. And because they were on offer at the time, I bought them, although I had real doubts as to whether they would really fit on a red compact sedan in matt bronze. That's a matter of taste. In my opinion, I didn't like it at all at first because it didn't necessarily match the chrome on the outside and the real premium look of the interior. But now that the car has also been lowered, I like what I see. The Tomason TN25 Super Light in 8.5x19" ET45 with Yokohama BluEarth-Winter in 225/35R19 were installed on my new Mazda 3 Fastback (notchback), model year 2024, in conjunction with an ST XA coilover suspension, which was set to a lowering of 35 mm at the front and 30 mm at the rear. They are also really very light: the complete wheel weighs 19.5 kg (rim + tires + tire pressure sensors + balancing weights + hub caps + centering rings). The original Mazda standard wheels in 7x18" ET45 with 215/45R18 come in at an impressive 22.2 kg. The less weight, the better, keyword "unsprung masses". The only disadvantage: you have to be extremely careful when tightening the wheel nuts. There is very little room for them. It's almost inevitable that you'll scuff your fancy, brand-new rims with the nut. For such cases, I have plastic-coated sockets (nuts), whereby the slightly cheaper nut with plastic sleeve didn't even fit and the more expensive, slimmer Hazet nut left marks on the rim despite the plastic sleeve. Really very tight around the wheel nuts, so be careful!
