Riax Seca wheel

Does anybody have any information on Riax wheels in general? And specifically the Seca? From the limited research I have done at this point its a brand of wheel that is marketed and distrbuted by American Racing. I have no idea of the quality but they are pretty inexpensive. Usually you get what you pay for...

They are not extremely light but they are not heavier than OEM wheels either. Some are on ebay and some are on other online shops.

Is the information in that add true? I read that they are distributed by american racing and the ebay add says they are made by motegi.

Thanks,
k

I've searched and don't see any mention of Motegi and the Motegi racing and track lines of wheels are different.

You are correct K H D with what you have found. American Racing makes Motegi and Riax along with a number of others. The Riax line is sold as an entry level turner wheels. Quality should be good. No big worries
