will Racing Hart cp-035's look good on my lude

[warrior4jc]

I have a white 93 si lude, stock exterior. Would RC CP-035's look good on my car? I found a reputable site that has them in silver and gold in 17" with tires for $750. Its is a close out sale. Should i go for it?
Thanks guys

whats the site name?

There's a good chance they're not the "real thing". Rota and Konig both have casted look-alikes of the CP-035s. The real Racing Hart CP-035s have the logos on the lip of the wheel, and are forged.



BTW, the wheel pic above is from "vwong", who's a member of preludeonline.com and www.hondaprelude.com

I ordered them. The price was right. I got the last set they had, they said they had very few sets available. I got them from www.speedandstyle.com, and they seem to be a reputable company and the guy i talked to was Knowledgeable . They sold the silver set before i called. I got the Racing Hart CP-035's in gold with Toyo Proxy FZ4 215/40 x 17. After shipping they were $825. The guy assured me that they were the real racing harts and i zoomed the picture and they said racing hart on them. I know that the real ones weight around 13.5 pound each so i will weight them when i get them to make sure. If not they will go back. They still have some really good closeouts left on the site.

gold rims on a white lude? send pics when you get them on. sounds like you got a decent deal though. congrats, i'm sure your a happy guy

Do you think that white/gold combo will look ok?
I guess i will find out in a few days. I hope so, otherwise i may just sell them to a friend or something.

Strange that they mentioned they had a silver set, since the only two sets that are available are white and "Winning Gold". If they are the real thing...that price is a steal!!!

"Normal" price for 17x7 Racing Hart CPs run around $1700...without tires. Take some pics when you get 'em!

i checked racing hart's site and it looks like they used to produce silver cp-035's but no longer do. The new line is only available in winning gold and white. The closeouts i got could be a few years old, hence closeout, but they are still the same wheel. I can wait till they come in.:sun:

Ummm they make 2 diffrent kinds one named CP-035 and CP-35 the 035 being the light weight ones that cost a lot of money while the 35 weight about 17 lbs for a 17 inch rim and are much cheaper then the 035... i suspect that you purchased the CP-35

But if you got the CP-035 great find for the price

also on another note they are beginning to produce the CP-035 in a silver or gunmetal i cannot remember which one and they are also producing a CP-035R which are polished silver(Mirror Look) and look really nice

I am depressed now. SpeednandStyle called and said that when i made my phone order that had already sold out of the cp-035's. They sold shortly after being posted on their website. I suspect like a lot of other companies web orders take preference over phone orders, and i called them to order just to make sure the deal was real. So now i am wheelless........
I dont know if i will run by a deal like that again.

That sucks. GroupBuy will have some kind of sale coming along from a company...if you really want 'em, just be patient.

I saw the cp-035's in a shop the other day and they were so sweet. A pair of 15's for almost $1400, they weighed only 9lbs! I had him check out 17's and he said they ran @ $1800.
