Default RH j5 pro Vs. TRD 19inch wheel

ok, im not an expert, but has anybody noticed that people like to sell thier TRD wheels as J5pros..........which they are not, the TRD wheel is a single peice cast rim as the J5pro is a two peice and looks simlar, but very different.
In fact i was told by someone locally who know alot about these things, RH evoloution and Racing Hart are two seperate companies........anyone know the story on this?

i just find it misleading for people to try to sell the TRD wheel as a J5pro....

The "RH Evolution" brand is owned by Dazz Motorsport (www.dazzmotorsports.com), which is an American company (in SoCal) that also imports/distributes Racing Hart wheels (www.hartwheels.co.jp) in America.

Some say RH Evo wheels are not made in Japan (probably China, Taiwan, Thailand, etc) by Hart Wheels of Japan, but there seems to be conflicting information around.

i just amused how people try to sell a lesser wheel as a more expensive version, ive seen it done here.

well if it says "racing hart" it is what it says, and if it says "RHevoloution" that is what they are, and i think we all seem to agree they are not the same thing.
