RacingHart wheels

Does RacingHart make good wheels? They are cheap and have some cool rims. But don't yall think these rims are a rip off of the GTC Volk wheels? 19s are swwweet.

RH makes some high quality wheels, but i agree they are soft as butter...

i had a set of the CP-035R's... most expensive wheel in their line, and i hit a pothole and bent 2 of them ****ers...

it was a sizable hole, on a 225/40 tire, so i don't know if anything would have held up to that thing with that low a profile tire...

the RH Evolution series is their cheap line, and i wouldn't even consider those...



the drop on that thing is sweet as hell...!

How easy is it to bend a wheel? I had some Borbet 18 inch wheels on my Cobra and never had any problems with bending my wheels and they aren't even that great of a brand. And how can forged aluminum be any stronger from brand to brand. Who makes a strong wheel that will never bend? Don't forget most people are on a budget, maybe $250 a wheel is the max i can spend for 18s (+tires). I though those RH looked good and I doubt I would ever hit anything big enough to bend them just driving around Austin. I don't autocross or any racing BS.
