R1 wheels??

I wanted to get some opinions on the R1 wheels.. I was looking at the Hype's and the Drift's.. I'm still waiting for my wheels to come in, they aren't sure when they are coming in, so i started looking at other wheels.. Any opinions??

Personally, I like both of them. The first set reminds me of Racing Harts RS721's, the 2nd set Piaa Super Rozza's. I know alot of people on the board will probably chime in saying they are CHEAP wheels. But if its what you like, go for it.

I was looking at the Racing Hart 721's, they don't come in a 20" though?

Yeah I was thinkin the drift were hot.. They offer a 2.75" lip in the front on the 20X8.5 and a 5" lip in the rear for a 20X10.. Thats sweet..

I think the only issue with those wheels is the way they get the huge lips. If you notice, the spokes are bowed out like a fishbowl, instead of being flat.

Yeah but most wheels that have a 3"+ lip has to bow in, unless the wheel sticks out on the fender..

I like the Drift wheels better out of the two.

I like the GTR-4's even better!! Too bad they don't come in a 20".
