Anyone gonna expunge what the wheels are then?

 

Well, I never said I actually knew what they were. I hope that one of you more knowledgeable folks would be able to enlighten me. I just assumed people were stumped on the others.

I have some more that I'll post later

 

Still wanna know about these

 

 

1 RH Alurad Minilites (me thinks)
2 Hamann
3 RacinghartC4
4 BK RAcing 299
5 MAxi Tuner?
6 Kreuzers

 

Hey roofas,

Do you know if those RH Alurad Minilites are any good? I kind of like the look

 

RH is a good quality wheel company They're heavy...but who cares Those wheels are a special 'multi-fit' which means that they have super high offsets and are meant to be run with adapters or spacers to allow them to fit multiple lug patterns. The ones pictured are also 17x8 with a low offset so they are close to the fender which is why they are running their tires stretched. I think they offer a less aggressive 7" wide model too though.

number 5 are Racing Sparco Wheels NS-06

And I believe number 6...on the duell cars.....are Advan Racing RS's

 

Answer....photoshop. You'll notice that the rears are just the fronts copy and pasted onto the rears and slightly squished. They're also a single lug design which would be really custom for a MINI

 

I thought they were 18s which is why I plumped for the Kreuzers - nice to see 17s looking so big though

 

#1 Racing Hart C4 again....black finish Racing Sparco NS-06's on the white car

#2 Photoshop of a mono-lug wheel.??

#3 Hamann Anniversary in All black with polished lip......aka Breyton Magic wheel. The other side of the car was featuring Hamann's other wheel the PG4 in all black with the orange hankook tires. Better pic of the black anniversaries: http://www.hamann-motorsport.de/uploads/pics/9_03.jpg

#4 Super obscure tuner wheel company The car pictured is the ICC tuning R56 with the JCW replica/exaggerated bodykit they offer. The wheles themselves are made by Dotz Wheels in the UK and the name of the wheels are Brands Hatch

 

I'm pretty sure kreuzers have 10 spokes and they're a bit more flat near the centercap

I guessed RS because they dive in at the centercap and the spokes are a bit more round. 9 spokes

 

Still photochop?

 

You are the MAN!

 

Longboard said they were not C4's

 

Now I'm confused - both designs have 10 spokes, no?

 

Looks kind of like this but not quite:



BTW, anybody know how much the Racing Sparco NS-06's weigh in their forged version?

 

Hahahah ooooops. You're right.....all the wheels are 10 spoke. I counted and recounted like 5 times and still only counted 9

I'm 90% sure they are still the C4's.....they were listed in that car's build-up page.

 

Hahaha yup, the perspective is still just a tiny bit off....and I'd be willing to put money on the fact that the background and bodykit were photoshopped at the time too. they do now produce the bodykit though).

I'll see if I can find the source picture for the wheel....my guess is that it came from a concept car wallpaper or race car wallpaper.

It's pretty convincing what you can do with photoshop in the way of making up bodykits and putting on random wheels. One of my photoshops...

 

thats a nice chop job!

 

They're advertised as 60% lighter than the non-forged version. They're listing 19 lbs for the 18x7.5's

Apparently Racing Sparco is a division of Crimson Inc in japan.....the wheel's product page in case you know japanes maybe?

Close up of the bond car's wheels versus C4-R's.....same centercap and the same 3-piece bolt placement.

 

nice call....sure looks the same to me!

 

mmmmmm so I was right all along......

 

what kind of headlights are those? they are sweet!

 

They are the OEM xenon headlights from the factory. Only difference is that they've been opened up and had the interiors painted. They also custom added the halos from the BMW headlights.
