Default 18" Racing Hart/TRD package back?

Well I haven't noticed this until a couple of days ago but those sweet chrome 18" Racing Hart package is back on the Scion builder as a option for $1,999 depending of course on the dealership.

Has this really made a comeback, if so, does anybody have any idea why??

Thanks

What a rip!!! $1999!!

I got mine off E-bay (wheels only) for $600, then got some Falken ZIEX 512's ( I LOVE them BTW) for $400, then add mounting and I have less than $1100 invested.

RH rims are of geat quality IMO.

Alot of people give me crap for buying a "factory wheels" but I love 5 spoke wheels!

Btw, the $1,999 is with the install, wheel and tire balance, pressure check and blah blah blah... it's around $1200 if you want the package minus the install...at least that was what I was told via the phone.

Any garage would do it for like 50 - 100 bones around here

FYI, it cost me $25 ( $100 total) a tire for mounting the tire to the wheel, and for balancing......

apparently they had you use a "special" machine to mount my 35 series tire to the wheels?!?!?!

i dont know about $400 for tires. I got falken azenis st115 for $83 a tire, mb motorsports gunmetal 17x7 inch rims for $119 each. The total came out to $865 even. Free shipping, free mounting, free balancing, lug nut with lock. I ordered them from discounttires.com, they came, i took the old ones off, and put the new ones on.

Try finding the rims off of ebay, but deff buy the tires off that website, FREE SHIPPING!!!

19" tires are hella expensive. the Racing Heart Wheels were discontinued because of cases where the wheel was hitting the brake line. I guess they fixed the issue and decided to bring it back. Last i heard from scion corporate down in torrance,ca is that they destroyed over 500 sets of RH/Trd wheels because of the recall.
