I saw these wheels and thought these would look great on my hb/b car. I haven't heard of these wheels before. Does anyone know any more info about these? Thanks

 

I love the look of these wheels, but i have never seen a Mini with them. You can get them through Wheel Options http://www.wheeloptions.com/main.html/ Post pics if you get them.

 

Wedsport is a pretty well respected Japanese wheel brand if thats what you're asking.

What a strange coincidence - I had never heard of Wedsport until I was looking into wheels online yesterday. Funny timing to see it pop up today :smile:

Those particular ones remind me of BBS RKs

 

That is what I was comparing them to

 

I'll have more info once we get our 1st ones in stock. I am expecing this to rival the SSR comps

You guys are going to carry them? Let us know when you get specs and pricing. I'd like some 16x7 in black (if they make them). Thanks.

 

yes please post specs, I'm interested in the 17x7 if available.

Too bad these are not available in 4-100...

 

Hopefully cheaper than ssr comps! And in BLACK PLEASE!!!!!! And for the Mini and the Evolution!

Thanks Alex, for showing love to the forums, and posting, unlike other vendors that ignore the forums, just want to advertise statically.

 

I too would like more information about 16" black, please

 

Well i found out that the 17's weigh in at 13.7 pounds . But i'm wondering if they are forged.

 

Available in White, 17x7, 4-100?

 

better yet - 18x8 et42ish 4x100?

 

Does hb mean hyper blue?? Anyway, those wheels would look AWESOME!

 

Yup exactly. hb/b = Hyper blue with black top.

 

Look into Advan RG wheels... nearly identical, yet still costly. Available in white, silver, and bronze. Suddenly, SSR Comps look like knocks.

 

Ah, WedsSport TC-005s, my all time favorite wheels. I've looked into buying them a few times but always went another way due to prices. I've been after 17x7.5 (14.2 lbs) and they can be had in 4-100 at various offsets, but the best price I could find was something like $460 ea. They are SSF (semi-solid forged) like the SSRs. Here are a few weights.

15x6.5 10.2lbs
15x7.0 10.7
15x7.5 11.0
16x7.0 12.7
16x7.5 13.2
16x8.0 13.9
17x7.0 13.8
17x7.5 14.2
17x8.0 14.9
17x8.5 15.3
18x7.5 16.8
18x8.0 17.7
18x8.5 17.9

Their website is mostly Japanese, but there are some good pics.

 

$460? Ouch. I mean, they are great looking and the weights are nice, but considering you can get SSR Competitions for almost $100 less ea., Gram Light 57s for $200 less, and Team Dynamics Pro Race 1's for almost a quarter that price, it makes it hard to justify. But oh, how I'd love to find a way to justify it...they are sweet looking.

 

This is my first attempt to attach pics so pardon me if it doesn't work the first time.

 

I hope this is working...

 

>16x7.5 13.2

hummm... my Comps in the same size is still over 1.5 lbs lighter...

 

Yup, but when I bent and broke my third Comp the clue light finally came on and I decided to give up on them. I suppose the other reason I didn't splurge on the Weds is they are also SSF and I'm now a little leary of lightweight SSF wheels.

 

bad roads?
Ive yet to bend my Comps... these are my second set. My first one
were on my rex that I sold.

 

Another idea for the economy minded might be the Ro-Ja LT-5 . 17/ 7 14.5 lbs and I can get them delivered to your door for $600 for the SET. They are closing out that line which is why the normal price of 340 per wheel has been dropped quite a bit. I can still get them in white, silver or bronze. PM me if interested.
