Racing Hart C5 on TurboII? Opinions? Photos?

Nevermind that comment, I know 1fook in real life and was being silly.

I changed my mind on the C5's, looking at Advan Model 5 currently.. unless anyone else has some ideas.

I love Advan wheels, but just can't justify the cost of them considering the majority of them are cast. The model V's should look pretty nice. The RG's will look mean though.

Seth used to have SSR integrals on his T2. I think that that is a nice looking wheel that is relatively inexpensive for a turbo 2.

or you could just get gram lights

****, thanks for reminding me Vic. Justin I have a set of Silver Gram lights for the FC in stock that I'm blowing out. I don't have my price sheet at home, but this would be a deep *** deal. I'd have no problems totally hooking you up with these. You've always been a kind person and humble person. I totally respect you for that.

The setup I got is the 17,7.5 and 8.5. This will allow for 215/45 or 225/45 and 245/40. Similar to the E36 setup. They are +40 offsets. If you'd like 9.5's in the rear I could just bring those two in for ya. I could always have the 8.5's go to any FD, Z32, JZA80 etc...

They only weigh about 16-17 lbs as well. An update, I got the first set of RPF1's through Enkei NA. These wheels are frikin' amazing. I highly reccommend everyone looking into these.

Amazingly lightweight. 17,8 and 9 are in between 15 and 16 lbs. I just mounted some Toyo T1s in 235/40 and 245/40 for the NA. The 8 and 235 weighed in at 37pounds. The 9 and 245 weighed a pound more.

The total weight was less than the 16,8 FD wheel with a somewhat worn tire which ranged between 39 and 42 pounds.

We have those also. Another spanking *** deal. I'll post pics later. It's been rainin'.

5 Zigen also has some new wheels out that may interest you. We are also a distributor for them so depending on your budget might be able to get you a phat hookup there too.



On a 350Z:


At SEMA:


This might follow the nice clean flat five spoke that you're looking for. This is a FORGED 2 PIECE wheel from what I could gather.

Peace, Rishie

FORGOT TO MENTION: 19" only. **** not good for SF streets. Sorry.
