New HP Racing Wheel

[FuNwaGoN]

Well in my endless pursuit for wheels for my P5 I found these. I thought that I had settled on a set of Rotas for now and then moving up to Volks in the coming year. But when I saw these I had to rethink the rotas. This is exactly the look that I am going for. They come in three different finishes. Hyper Silver, Hyper Dark Silver and Chrome. I have been trying to do research to find if they have the correct offset. I found on their website that they have 18x7.5 so if they offer them in 48 offset then I am going for these in the Dark Silver. Just check out the lip. Is anyone on here familiar with HP or does anyone know if they come in a acceptable offset for our cars. I am running spool springs so I am dropped 2" all the way around. Check them out below.

Let me know what you think. And if anyone from Auto RnD is reading this, do you guys carry these wheels or can you get them?

Those are beautiful. I am a lifetime fan of BBS and BBS-inspired design. How much?

See Rishie's "tire fitment recipe" thread to check your fit.

well from Wheel max it's like $1300 with tires. And I know I need a 48 offset, just not sure if it is made with that offset or not. I too love BBS and think these look alot like the BBS LM.

I normally think wheels like that are too busy. But those are pretty sweet.

hey pro5man I am in charlotte and am interested in your front lip. how much would you be willing to take for it and is it painted or CF. Thanks in advance for the info.

Now back on subject. I just love the lip on these things. Gave HP a call and they said they woudl get back to me. Guess everyone is at lunch. I want these damn wheels bad!!!

SON OF A B................WHY IS IT EVERYTIME I FIND A WHEEL I LOVE THEY DON"T OFFER OUT FITMENT??????? Damn things come only in a 38 offset. So looks like no Hps for me. Well back to looking I guess. Probably gonna throw the rotas on there anyway.

Hehe, I ws gonna post these wheels a while back, but when I found out that they're only available in +38 offset.

These are close, and are available in +43mm offset (still not good enough for you FunWaGon, but maybe someone else can use them.) I love these!

 

[FuNwaGoN]

yeah I saw those too. and I like them. If it wasn't for this damn high offset I would be rolling on some rims right now. I guess I am just a sucker for cross laces. but I am getting tired of finding wheels I like only to find that they don't fit. Either wrong offset or wrong width or wrong bolt pattern. somebody out there is just bound and determined to make me buy some damn volks aren't they???

Try the Konig Imagine. They come in a 18"x7.5" with a +45mm. You will encounter some rubbing but I have found is only about 1mm or 2mm rub. And only on the right side of the P5. When I lowered mine only the right side rub, even without anyone on the passenger side. This seems to be a problem on the P5's since PacmanP5's wagon with the Imagine wheel has the same problem on the right side only. He rolled the fender and has no more problems. His ride looks awesome and it was the first choice of wheels for me until I saw his; we live on the same city
