I'm embarrassed to say, I don't know if they covered the replacement cost...or if I had to. I *thought* I did, but now I'm not so sure. Like I said, this was several years ago. I've looked through all my emails, and I see correspondence from Webb Motorsports...but nothing from Team Dynamics. So, I'm not sure who paid for the 4th wheel.

I had 17x7 PR1s. I had to get the PR1s, because the PR1.2s wouldn't clear my big brake kit. Looking at the pictures again that you posted, and going through the pictures when I had them on my Mini, makes me want to look more into these.

Thanks for posting. I was going to go with RPF1s, but didn't care for the look. Now, I'm thinking these wheels might be in the running. I'd love to see an FR-S/BRZ running these, so I can see how they look.

Please, please, please post pictures once they're installed

What size wheel did you go with? What color? What tire will you be running?

I am afraid my price would not be all that relevant to you unfortunately. That said, the retail price on these wheels is pretty low to begin with. Comparable to RP-F1.

Hyper silver 18x8 +37 offset custom made hub centric so as to not require rings. 56.1mm hub bore.

Glad I could rekindle an old flame

While trying to find the weight of them, I found these pictures:

The above pictures aren't mine. However, my 3 spokes cracked exactly where the above ones did. I realize just about every wheel has some failures, so it still isn't swaying me from possibly purchasing them.

Thanks! Post some pix when you get them installed.

mines13 · 08-21-2012, 03:59 PM

Those appear to be 1.1's I wonder what the nature of the failure was. I find it hard to believe all of the spokes just failed even under track conditions...

Well I would consider that catastrophic failure, but like you said it happens. I destroyed a few stock Enkies on my CL Type S (I think it was 5)

Will do. They are identical in finish, diameter and width to this TD 1.2...

I had a set of Team Dynamics wheels on for my ACR Neon a few years back. Put them on the car the night before I was going to drive 4 hours to an out of state autocross. One of the tires (brand new) was low, so I pumped it up. Ended up checking the tire again awhile later, pressure was dropping again. I thought I might have a defective tire, but after taking it off and putting soapy water all around the tread and bead of the tire, I couldn't find the leak. It ended up being a casting flaw in the wheel itself where air was leaking out of the flaw in the barrel of the wheel. Team Dynamics warrantied the wheel for me, but I was out the cost of mounting and balancing the tire a 2nd time, as well as shipping back to TDR. The replacement wheel was ok, but I ended up selling them a year later. I'll personally stick with Enkeis and Kosie wheels, I've had multiple sets of each with zero problems.

I've damaged many an Enkei wheel, so I shy away. The Kosie's are very light but I don't like the looks so I am going TD.
