hd wheels anybody ever heard of them?
 
First post since frs came out had my car for a while now and its time to start upgrading so I found these wheels made by hd wheels called switch but I have never heard of them so if anybody has or knows any info on their wheels good or bad I would like to know. Also I dont know how to attach an image so if somebody can look them up and post the image that would be appreciated.

Googled it and this was what came up. If this is what you're talking about, I don't think most on here would agree with putting these on your car. But, it is your car and you can do what you want with it.

those all look like truck/suv wheels.

Alright should I not put any of these on? Are there any brands you would suggest? btw ive never bought anything aftermarket for any vehicle ive owned its all been just to keep them running

HD wheels? Is that owned by Home Depot racing?

Jkjk, I would probably stick with some of the more main stream wheels out for our cars.

Whats your budget? What are you looking to get from new wheels? Looks, performance?

Also, if you like a certain set of wheels, go for it-its your car, not ours.

Once we know budget and what you want out of your wheels, we can help recommend...otherwise there's only about 10,000 options

The band has been around for several years but I don't know anything about the quality of the product. If you aren't going to be racing and there are no horror stories about the wheels blowing up then I say go for it.

I like the switch wheels just because they are unlike anything ive seen before and I guess I just like being different but ultimately I do want to get into racing seeing as how road atlanta is only about 10 miles down the road as of right now I have about 1200 to spend on wheels tires included but I have enough life on my tires to keep riding around on my stock ones for a while if I need to get more cash togeather but at the end of the day I dont really want to spend more than 2k on the wheels(without tires) sorry for the rant but I guess what im saying is I dont know what I want and I dont know where I should be looking

Also I found out hd wheels are made in the same factory as enkei dont know if that really says anything to quality though and I cant find any horror stories but I cant find any good stories either

start by going through the wheel threads and image galleries...when you see something you like, buy them.

rpf1 is the safe answer to all wheel questions.

m.box.design 01-19-2015 09:46 PM

Enkei RPF1 will be a great choice for that price range and for future track use.

LOL

I cant get them im no super performance guy but I called them up and I know weight isnt everything but he told me that 17x7 would weigh about 25-30 lbs! I just cant do that.
