Hey guys and gals... A freind of mine might be able to hook me up on a set of racing hart rims at a really good price. The ones that I like are the C2 (pic below), its a three piece wheel so I imagine its light in weight. But I'm not planning on racing on this wheel, it would be for show... My only thing is, to get these wheels I would have to get rid of the 17" SVT wheels in order to afford the racing harts. What would you guys do? Keep the 17" SVT for a "stock" look or get the really cool three piece expensive wheel...  ------------------ David Zambrano svt_mondeo at yahoo dot com CSVT E1 #4808 http://daplace.spedia.net - my homepage "Cause life is just too short to be normal"

If it is for show then I would just stick to a one piece wheel. I got a set of wheels which are similar in appearance: ASA EM9They aren't as fancy looking but very inexpensive, built under the control of BBS, and you could keep your other rims or get some nice race wheels for the AutoX Andrew 99 SVT

Your not really asking are you???
If you have the $$$ go for the C2s... they look WAY better than stock, and they are better wheels.

I would get the wheel, but they only offer it in a 17' which is to small for me. Go for it!!!

Well, I have Proxes R tires mounted on the 16" SVT rims for track events. And for everyday driving I use the 17" SVT rims.
I like the way the 17" SVT rims look, but I saw this CL type S with the 18" C2s and I just couldn't get over how sweet it looked. I think 18s would look good on the car...

just thought of this.... They make the C2 in 4 X 108? or are you getting them drilled. Do you know about what they cost? (not nessesarily your price, just a normal price, including drilling if they need it)

Dave,
those look really nice. They'll be a biatch
to clean, that's for sure.
Depending on how much they'll cost, I'd
think about the 18" Superleggera's if
you're going for show. Or the SSR GT1s.
Racing Harts ain't cheap, but since your
friend is hooking you up.... Might as well.

I appereciate the feedback guys...
I've seen the 18" C2s go for $400-600 each, He said he could hook me up with a set for about $1200
I think they would have to be drilled for our cars.
