ori wheels wont "solve" ur pothole problem.... ori wheels can still break from potholes...ive known a number of ori wheels breaking due to potholes.

+1

fake wheels are fine for normal daily drive... heck... theyre even ok for occasional track use.

i know a few track kakis who are running on fake wheels and are they are doing fine...


which episode? link me pls.


yeah... as i mentioned above.


originates from thailand... good bang for buck wheels.


who says not recommended? a few years back, quite a number of Japan GT cars were running on SSR Type C wheels... saw them up close and personal in SIC....nowadays i dunno wat they running already since i havent seen a japan GT car in years as im not bothered to follow anymore.


as for the video.... track use puts a really heavy load on wheels, continuously...more than ur normal daily driving... any wheel will have a chance of breaking when the wheel sees alot of track time... especially if fitted with semi slicks or slick tires....the amount of g-force the wheel n spokes have to withstand is very high....and its even worse when the car climbs over the kerbs on the track... combine all that with the constant high heat from accelerating and braking the wheels have to endure.. and thats what u get.

ive seen a number of wheels braking at the spokes like that... mostly from the internet... but in almost all cases.. its due to track use... combined with semi slicks....1 or 2 from accidents... none from pothole.




as for me... im currently running on a used old set of 5Zigen FN01R-C wheels...ori

previously was on Rota Auto X... and i mean the original Rota (which i imported in myself).. not the rota fakies that are being sold everywhere these days

get the advanti ultralight series la... 4.9kg for 15x6.5

4x114.3? go get used ori wheels la... that PCD is cheap compared to the same wheel with 4x100... RM1k thereabouts can get old shcool ori wheels if u look hard enough

convert to GSR or MIVEC brakes la... can get a brake upgrade as well as more rim choices hehehehe

ori?

magnesium blue

slow r we? damn alot of ppl using 15x8 already la...

btw, where did u see this particular wheel with this offset?

naah..most r +20....if got +30 last time I would have bought it already instead of my current 5zigen wheels 15x7 +33

some of the 15x8 are even et0

I want the 15x8 for track use...not for looks or hellaflush

but I actually want 15x8 +35.....perfect fitment for my car...only prob is...not many come in those....n ori only

naah...already happy with my 5zigen

if I change to 15x8...ill target the enkei pf01...

y u giving me RP? go read again properly wat model i posted


nope... there are lots of people (not in this country though) running 15x8 with 205/50 tires for track days and theyre running fine...the tire is not so stretched....quite squarish


either way... i wouldnt mind the RSR coz thats wat im using now (205/50) and i definitely wouldnt mind the RS3

huh??? couldnt find?? how come u couldnt find man???

this has been out for ages

http://www.enkei.com/pf01.shtml#

its even the first result in google search for "enkei pf01"

saw that long time ago from ah kit

15x8 +35 mmg dun have sell here.. must special order...

but i do love these wheels... not too expensive but with awesome fitment and ridiculous amounts of caliper clearance even for BBKs

225/40.

the 40 is not mm....its percentage of the width...meaning 40% of 225

Contact forumer nestum n order enkei pf01...i think he has ori in stock...if not mistaken he also has original rpf1....enkeis will still be lightweight n significantly cheaper than rays

Truth be told, weight wise, some taiwan wheels can be lighter.than ur ori rims

Otherwise, search mudah.my for ori wheels also can
