Would you trust these wheels?
In my quest to make up my mind, I stumbled upon these on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SCION...spagenameZWDVW
Here's what I've gathered so far. Although these look almost identical to the Racing Hart TRD 19's, they are not made by them. They are made by RH. Also, the Racing Hart wheels are 19x7.5 and these are 19x8. However, these are significantly cheaper. And they do still say TRD on them and are supposedly also made in Japan (wonder if that is legit?). Has anyone seen these or even own them? I don't know what to make of it.

those are clean looking, and for the price you cannot really beat that......
I remeber when those were like 1000.00 for the set.
Also they are made by RHevoloution, not racing hart, two different companies.
either way nice quality wheel

Yes, you can pick them up....usually at Island Motorsports where they can also mount and balance them for you if you choose. Almost everything is "call for pricing" because he adjusts his prices as wheel prices adjust. For example, ALOT of Axis wheels have gone down in price, but instead of keeping his prices high and raking in the benefits, he reflects the same savings to the consumer.
The price is probably all four....he had like 40 sets at one point...
