I wouldn't say they bend easily. They've held up pretty well for me, especially being a light wheel. DC roads SUCK, pot holes up the @ss. That being said, any wheel of the same size that is lighter than the s-lite will bend easier. The S-lite is one tank of a wheel, hence my choice for a winter wheel.

but that is only my opinion.

 

nope, STX rules allow any wheel up to 8" wide, any diameter, and any tire up to 245 in width. . .

 

They are PR1s and I have been running 45 profile with them. They do fill up the wheel wells better and the ride is much improved over the run-flats. Another bonus is they help protect the wheels much better.
Personally, I have not noticed much acceleration difference. cornering grip is improved.

Do you feel they are worth the expense for a daily driver? I have S-Lites currently. Either way, I will be getting new non-runflat tires.

 

The anwser is subjective, but I think if you want an extra set of rims these are a good buy. Ditch the run flats. Wow that is a performance mod you'll enjoy!

 

I already know about the benefits of ditching the runflats. I have non-runflat winter shoes on right now! And the Koni FSDs!! Now that's an improvement.

I'm not really looking for an extra set of rims. I was originally planning on selling the s-lites, and buying new rims. But I'm realizing that there isn't much value in used s-lites. So the TDs would be the main summer rims, with the s-lites sitting in the attic.

 

Anyone have pics of the TD Pro Race 1s or 1.2s in black, on a Dark Silver/Black MINI?

I'm getting ready to pick up a set. I'm trying to show my wife what it will look like.

 

 

15x7" ET 40 PR 1's on BF Goodrich KDW 205/55 ZR 15 tires. Sorry it's not on a dark Silver car, but as long as you have a black roof it's going to look good.

 

Are the TD logos stickers on the PR1s? Are they optional?

 

Yes they are stickers.

Optional? as in? Upcharge to get them?

I didn't have to pay any extra.

 

I just saw this post from 1.21.07

Look in my gallery. Mine are anthaicite.

Here is an old pic. but like I said look in my gallery

there is a bigger pic of the one I had posted here just a few posts. down.

 

Were they already applied, or did you have to apply them? If they are already applied, would they be easy to remove?

 

You'll need to apply them yourself...

 

They are easy to remove. I've actually replaced a couple in the past 3 years.

 

That's what I wanted to hear. I don't really care for most of the pictures I've seen with the decals.

Now to just figure out what color.

 

golden_child, when you bought yours, did you compare against the flat black? How would you describe the differences between the flat black and anthracite? Which do you think would look better on a Dark Silver/Black?

 

That depends on where you put them...

 

Looks like I have a new desktop pic

 

For comparison to MSFITOY's
Sorry I don't have a close up at the moment but can post one in place of this tomorrow.

 

Thanks Goldenchild...

Mine are satin black for the person who was asking...

Incase this hasn't been mentioned, V1 have deeper hub recess and flush lips while V1.2 has deeper lips and shallow hub...I personally prefer the former...

 

Do the TDs come with center hole covers?

 

Mine were pre center caps. So it had no lip for the cap to snap into. I know they make them now so you can add the cap, but I don't know if they come with the wheel or not.

 

The TDPR1 did not come with center caps but I ordered a set from TD but decided not to use them so I'll placing them up for sale soon...

 

I was told the graphics are now optional. Don At Team Dynamics gave me one. I had my graphics guy make me some for a buck each. I applied them myself, it's time consuming by the time you cut them all out, take the wheels off, apply them, put on a thin clear vinyl to protect them, put the wheels back on. The clear does a really good job of protecting them, I had them on my 17's for 2 years and they still looked like new. They are easy to peal off.
