Racing Hartz or Enkei???
- Thread starter JcsMP3
- Start date
what the **** are you tlking about, no offense but Racing hart is the premeir in rims. None better, well... but anyways Racing Hart is an elite rim and one that is still made in Japan. Most other are tawianese now. And in continuance, for the record i just bought 18" racing hart c5 3piece rims for my mp3. NI CE...
I find it hard to believe that Enkie makes Racing Hart. My stock '00 Protege rims had the Enkie symbol on the back. My Racing Hart C5's have no such Enkie emblem anywhere on them. I think they would IF they were made by Enkie. Racing Harts are very expensive and well made. I don't think Enkie has any wheels as pricey or as well built as Racing Hart. I could be wrong but have you ever wondered if MAZDA is passin off the Enkie rims as Racing Hart?? It could be possible. Who knows. Mazda also uses a symbol similar to the Enkie symbol. Its called the "Infini" that may be what you see on the back.!?!? If they are actually made by them it is "news to me"
Just my thoughts

No no no, dont' get me wrong at all. I love my freakin rims to death man. Yes it is that infinity symbol I am making reference too. Cause our rims well maybe only mine but it does say MPS on it the original concept for the MP3 was called th Mazda Protege Sport based on the HKS turbo version.
Huh I dont' thikn mazda can pass these off as fake racing hart... so now I am happy again...

greerstyl yeah..diamler-benz (the company name of benz) bought out chrysler like almost 2 yrs ago...and now the name for chrysler, jeep, eagle, and also mitsubishi are apart of what is now called diamler-chrysler...so now the m-class of benz is made in america....never ever think of buying this car,,,it sucks.....i know all this because i work for mb usa in montvale nj..
hehe...This is TRUE! When I painted my calipers I seen the Enkie Name stamped on the inside of my Racing Hart MP3 rim. I couldn't believe it either but there it was. I will take a picture of it as soon as I find out how to download images to my comp from my digital camera.

Guys, sorry to burst your bubble but Racing Hart is no longer what it used to be. The only true racing harts are the 3 piece ones and the one forged one, CP-035, in the US.
Now, what people claim to be Racing Harts are usually RH Evolutions, produced compliments of DAZZ, that are just like any other cast wheel. They just look a little cleaner but cost a lot more. Plus there is not markup on them and you'd be better off going with anothe cast wheel as they share molds with several companies.
I would go with VOLKS if spending the money, that or SSR or ADVAN or SPARCO. You get my drift, look for a FORGED wheel if you're spending money.
See ya, Rishie
RACING HART ON MP3 weighs 22lbs. Compared to the real CP035 at like 12lbs. That's a huge reduction in unsprung weight and I guarantee that your car will be way faster.
For those of you with MP3's, I suggest you start here. This will make your car accelerate much faster and handle even better.

Nothing is wrong with Enkie. They are a good company and have good products. Just the thought of Racing Hart being part of Enkie is a shock. Racing Harts are one of the most expensive and well made rims. If Enkie and Racing Hart are now one company it is news to me. They never used to be.
