Drag Wheels

BlackCobra · #1 (**permalink**) 03-24-2008, 09:19 PM

I was just web surfing and looking at some rims and came across a new company (to me) that makes, i guess you can say, "performance rims." the company is DRAG WHEELS and I dont know much about them and just want to hear what peoples thought are of their rims.
I did some research from other websites that sells their rims and they clam they are "light weight" but dont say how much they weigh. I have looked through there web site and they dont really have much about themselves in their website. If some of you are like me who havent heard of this company then here is the link to their website where you can check them out also. Drag Wheels. Extreme Alloys. | About.

I didnt know where to post this so if any moderators see this then please bring it to where it belongs.

DRAG, ROTA, KONIG. all make knockoff wheels. pretty much the same wheels. pick the style/color you like, and get it.

That is SUCH a bad photoshop or whatever the hell it is of the red CTR on their homepage!

im sporting DR21's on my car. got it locally from a buddy of mine
who runs a shop. they are pretty light, not sure by how much vs
stock. but they aren't heavy at all with the ziex912's i got on there.

qualitywise the paint on the spokes is durable, no chips so far after
3months of salty winter and about 3.5k miles.

the lip has some very minor pitting on just the front driver side. i
think they were from salt/rock impact when i passed a salt truck on
a hwy going 45mph in the other direction. it was a hard hit, even
made a little chip on my front bumper...

they are definitely nice looking wheels. even comes with center caps.
i prefer not to use caps on tuner type wheels.

I purchase DR23 fairly light 11 pound or so very happy with them, probably not the top quality but hey 150.00 a wheel for Canada it is a bargain.

The DR16, DR21, and DR16 are the style i am looking for or the ENKEI RPF1 since they are 9.5lbs and look pretty nice, according to TireRack.

check out link here ---> ENKEI RPF1

awesome wheels and quality and little more $$$ but I am sure it worth saving for good luck finding the perfect set.

hmm thats kinda a bummer. I just bought those exact same wheels. DR21's 15x7 gunmetal for my 08 ssm fit. well at least were not in the same state. but for $284 shipped brand new for the set I can't complain. :)

VBP_bomber · #14 (**permalink**) 03-26-2008, 10:11 AM

any one have the weight on these?

If i do get some rims im looking at getting ones that are bronze.

kenchan · #19 (**permalink**) 03-26-2008, 06:20 PM

yep, black and bronze should look real nice.

Get the ENKEI RPF1 Orig. rim FTW those are sick ... The drag wheels look good but there all knockoffs.. Buddy Club also has nice rims for a fair price...along with 5zigen. I would go with orig. rims rather then a knockoff, but at the same time I understand getting the knockoffs :)
