Need opinions on these wheels

[celox performance]

I need opinions please before I order these Buddyclub P1 SF Racing wheels. They'd be going on a white DC5.

I don't know how much they are but they look good 8) . I'm off to Buddclub in Preston tomorrow to try and order a set. A couple of people have said that they don't like the red on the wheel but I think it would suit the car :?

Mmmm Mm MmMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm 8)

Nice wheels, but again I'm not a fan of the red stripe that runs around the rim, it makes them look a little cheap imo... :roll:

 

[TypeRKid]

At the end of the day if you like them get them :lol:

 

[Wardy7]

I think they look smart! Like has been said though, if you like them then that is all that matters

Cheers
Wardy

 

[707 DC5]

those look tight. as was said before, if YOU like them...get them

 

[C&S Evo7]

Its the latest fashion in Japan, think they would look ok, personally i think they look worse if the white is waayyyy off a match. but you won't know till theyre on.

 

[Evs]

The colour scheme is a personal choice - not my bag at all but it's your car...

Just be careful with white wheels on a 'white' car - if the wheels are too white then it can look awful.

 

[Decklogic1]

Yup - think these would look ace if the colour was a match. 8)

 

[webbie]

I really like them

 

[g_mac]

have these wheels on my dc5 minus the red lip..colour is not a complete match but they do look awesome 8)

Same pic for you to compare :lol:

 

[Wardy7]

That is one of the nicest modded DC5's I reckon g_mac, looks the ducks nuts 8)
Wheels look ace at that ride height!

Cheers

Thanks for that pic, the white wheels look nice even without the red lip

I phoned up Buddyclub today but they're out of stock of the white wheels/red lip, they only had the black/red lip or white/blue lip and if I wanted to have a look i'd need to make an appointment to view them. They're being shipped over to them at the moment but they won't be in stock for 3-4 weeks .

g_mac-any idea of the weight of your wheels? I was also looking at the Team Dynamics Prorace 1 which seem very light.

Have you got any better pics of your Rotas in white mate? I have the same wheels in bronze and doing them white one of my options!!

 

[g_mac]

cheers for the comments on the dc5 8)

@ celox performance all i know is the wheels are a lot lighter than the oem 17's, not sure what weight they are with tyres etc, if i get a chance 2moro i'll put them on the scales as they are off for the winter!

@ Cfoster wheels are 18", think 215/35 tyres not 100% sure without checking them

Rims with a coloured lip, especially red, seem to be all the rage at the minute. I am looking at rims for my evo at the minute and most manufacturer seem to be bringing out loads of black rims with a red lip

g_mac-any idea of the weight of your wheels? I was also looking at the Team Dynamics Prorace 1 which seem very light.

From memory the 7.5 x 18" bare rim weights just under 8kgs. These are also a very strong rim

g_mac - looks lovely mate, what size wheels / tyres are they? (width?)

Chris

The tyre size is 215/35 18, as said the rims are 7.5 wide. You can fit a 40 series tyre on, but it will be very close to the arch and may possibility touch

 

[celox performance]

Thanks for that info mate. 8kg is very light and it's nice to hear they're a strong wheel.

I'm going to hold out for the white/red lip until they arrive in the UK. They're a very good price too at £150 per wheel . If they don't arrive within the next 5 weeks then i'll either have the black/red lip or just the plain white ones because i've got a track day the end of next month and need some stronger wheels than the soft standard ones.
