What do u think of Racing Hart J5 graphite on CG?

Hey all, I looked at car magazine, they showed a picture of Racing Hart J5 graphite wheel, they looked great. I thought that it would be looking good on CG. The wheel is lightweight but I wonder what weight of wheel? http://www.importhookup.com/images/rhj5.JPG What do u think? Thanks bro.

Looks good.. on a 350Z or G35C, that's what I think these wheels were made for. But do they fit on the TSX, 18/19? I like the style, somewhat like the Euro-R wheels but bigger.

Lightweight, are they forged?

My guess is they're 20-25 lbs, most likely the heavy side.

its all kinda confusing, but there is a wheel maker RH Evolution.

from wheelspecs.com

RH Evolution is NOT the same as Racing Hart. Many of the RH Evolution wheels closely resemble Racing Hart wheels in styling and nomenclature. Many wheel distributors and retailers purposefully or inadvertently misrepresent this. Racing Hart wheels are high quality, manufactured in Japan, and prices should reflect this, compared to the RH Evolution wheels.
Then there is Racing Hart, which is a line from Hart Wheels. RH is a different line than Racing Hart, also made by Hart Wheels? Dunno, it doesn't show up on their japanese website, but maybe its not updated.

Ever heard of DJ Kristoff? He has some good mixes on here, with free downloads of tracks and CD's.

rh evo and racing hart are made by different companies. if they were the same, then they would all have the same center caps. real racing hart wheels say racing hart on the center cap. rh evos just have the rh logo on them.

I don't think center caps is what distinguishes if they are the same company or not. G Games, Volk are the same wheel with different center caps. Dazz makes wheels for one of those companies, not sure which one, and you don't see Dazz centercaps on em. Just depends which company name wants to take em on as part of their product line-up. One is set up to be a cheaper wheel, while the other is more expensive, kinda like Honda and Acura. Bad analogy, but you get my point!
