In my quest to make up my mind, I stumbled upon these on ebay:

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.

 

TRD's are RH wheels that have been rebadged.

I could have picked up a set for somethinig liek 125 a wheel, so a cheap price wouldn't surprise me

 

what dp said, they are rebadged RH wheels. those are the real things, and the same. its legit, you dont see a whole lot of people running those ones. get them!

 

those wheels very nice!
id say grab them while they that low!

 

if youre still not sure, it says dazz on the back of the hub area...nice wheels

 

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

 

Those wheels are Heavy! 130lb's for the set, why do they weigh so much?

 

damn, i didn't read about the weight. that's roughly 32lbs a wheel! that's around 10lbs heavier than stock. these are the other ones i was talking about

i wonder how much these weigh

 

From what I understand from talking to a TRD rep, they are racing harts.....

 

$575

damn thats a helluva good deal, has anyone bought from them before??

 

i know the guy that owns it. He gets them direct from TRD....also club president of Scion Evolution. You can trust him

 

Wow that's a great price, someone needs to jump on that!

 

why's everything 'Call for price'

 

yeah, that is a heavy wheel then when you add the tires and the air you are sitting about 45 or more pounds, that is why i went to 18's....

 

that's a sweet deal, especially if i can pick them up in person and save on shipping. i'm gonna contact them to see if these are the 19x7.5 or 19x8 wheels.

 

that price is for 4 wheels? lol or for 1?!

 

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...

 

Why does Island Motorsports ring a bell? Oh YEAH!! that's the same place someone referred me to for my trd springs. I was looking for a place to install my trd springs and I was told on here they do a good job. Now I have 2 reasons to call them! Thanks!

 

who cares!!
