WedsSport TC105N Review and Weight Video
Hey Everyone,
I was replying to all the video threads I posted in the wheel section and realized I haven't shared the TC105n video for you guys. This is definitely a fan favorite on our platform and suits our car very well. One of the best weight/buck wheels I think I've weighed off ever.

My favorite of the non forged wheels. I have owned two sets now.

2 sets! I'm jealous. I think for a track wheel they are very nice. I like the look vs the RPF1 by quite a bit and they are also lighter. They are definitely one of my favorite non-forged wheel along with quite a few Advans.

I put my limited edition Dark Blue Metallic set on my S2000 this weekend. 16.6 pounds for a 17x9.

Shit. Your making me regret getting the rota knockoffs posting that weight. But then again...my car has been off road 3 times this year and I don't know if 4 pounds is worth over 1,000 dollars.

It might be. If you're going off road too, a WedsSport is going to be a lot more resistant to breaking and damage.
Here's a good video that WedsSport has made previously showcasing their strength: [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-v1Pyd4bPg"]Weds Sport Japan (English) - YouTube[/ame] Last edited by CrazyWookiee; 10-21-2014 at 03:51 PM. |

I'd rather my cheap wheels break than something else.

If you're driving your car in an off road condition, a broken wheel could result in a lot more further damage when the rim unexpectedly breaks. If I was driving my car in conditions, or off road similar to a rally I'd definitely get the strongest wheels I could buy. I wouldn't want that to be my single point of failure.

I've got a set of TC105N and love the look, weight and quality. Mine weighed in at 15.3 lbs in 17x8 size.
Only two complaints: (1) They're a bit pricey for flow-form cast wheels, (2) Wish there were center caps that didn't interfere with the hubcentric rings. I'm not using center caps which worries me when it rains (and on wet skidpad).
