What is the maximum width of RH Evolution wheels?

just wanted to know the maximum width of Racing Hart Evo. C5's, not Racing hart C5's, but the new EVo's.

just from a quick look arround the only width I've seen is 7.5

From what I understand the EVO's are made by DAZZ not by Racing Hart.

All FWD fitments. Not worth the time of day. They are all knockoffs and you never know where they are getting produced, Taiwan, Korea, etc....

Rishie

You get what you pay for and these are cheap. Although nicer looking than the majority of other cast knock offs.

RH Evolution is NOT made by Racing Hart. These wheels are produced by Dazz Motorsports. Many of the RH Evolution wheels closely resemble Racing Hart wheels in styling and nomenclature. Dazz Motorsports is the U.S. distributor of Racing Hart. Those are the reasons for confusion. Very clever marketing by Dazz. Many wheel distributors are even confused by this. If you like the look of Racing Hart, but don't mind some extra rotational mass, these are the wheels for you.


I think they have some 8" wide wheels now too.

They're probably "real" RH Evolutions but they're not really made by Racing Hart, they're made by Dazz. If you notice, Dazz usually calls them RH Evolutions and not Racing Hart Evolution.

Hmmm... maybe the earlier ones were actually made by Racing Hart? Cause I doubt Dazz could just use their logo like that... maybe it's only the newer sets that are made by Dazz.

Rishie? any input here?

my guess is one of two things:

A. Racing Hart was calling it's one piece line Evo.

B. Dazz was initially calling its line Racing Hart Evo and since changed the name to avoid legal issues.

they are cheapo knockoff ricer wheels that are manufactured for CiBics, SentRaz, and KiAz that dont need wheels wider than 8". and they dont want to waste their money producing wider wheels that would fit RX-7s, Supras, NSXs, BMWs, etc., because they know the typical owner of that model of car will not stop that low.

and they made a name like "RH" so people would think they are related to Racing Hart which is a much higher quality wheel, when they really have no affiliation with Racing Hart whatsoever.

BTW, they are knockoffs of Racing Harts, but in a one piece design.
