wow so nice hate guys, the op can do w/e he want that makes him happy. He even admit it they are fake and are for track only, and he just wanted to have a good laugh with his friends. It's not like he was trying to sell them or pass them on as the real deal

I like the look of all of these wheels. They're all copying something. As long as they work okay and you like them. I know I can't afford super expensive wheels so I am always looking for a bargain. Thanks for the great photos.
I sold my set of Tenzo Avid1 for these because they have more sizes and better offsets. I wanted to get the Semi-forged competition wheels from FastWheels but it only came in 17x8 +35, i wanted to run 245/40 tires since they were cheaper and easier to find stock in Canada than 235/40.

This is the same stuff that made any Civic owner get laughed at. When people rice out cars and have fake shit everywhere, it casts a bad image for the specific car. This along with the guy having his steering wheel out the wheel, and anyone that has a -eleventybillion camber, are starting to make these cars look like rice mobiles.

you are very right.....i keep saying our cars is taking over civics for the next generation of RICE. Everytime i see my car slammed, or loudass exhaust, vinly wrapped hood and trunk, huge GT wing, crazy camber, tires being stretched on crazy width tires, etc....in my mind its just, "do u even track?".....i only do suspension, swaybars, tires, brakes, and racing seats for lapping days and time attack.

wheels i dont really care, as long as they bang for the buck and fit the tire size i want. i wouldnt want to track my Gramlights 57Xtreme.....they are too expensive. plus they are 18" and stagger, so getting track tires for them is expensive and cant swap the front and rear.

Staggered is worthless without a ton more power anyway.

The real versions are stronger and lighter, both major performance aspects of a wheel. So I guess if MAJOR performance aspects don't matter in wheels you've got no problem.

I got 17x9 RPF1s for $1050 shipped. 15.8 lbs. My 17x9 Rota Grids are 20.5lbs.

Obviously it's worth time, but not 5 seconds. Unsprung weight is the worst kind.

My Hayakus are heavy as hell, 21lbs.
i wanted RPF1 or PF01 at first but to get that here in Canada, cost almost double what i am using now.
I do have RPF1 in 18x7.5 for sale if anyone near Toronto is interested
