next set of wheels? i need to make a quick decision. help me out!

what should be my next wheels??
my friend is selling a very very clean set of these
racing hart


but i am going for a spoon/type one theme on my fit, so should i wait until i find a nice set of these?

i cant decide to pull the trigger on the racing harts. they are really nice wheels and they are up for sale but i really want to find a set of the sw38 but there is no guarantee i will ever find a clean set of them. HELP!!!

CPFs are played out! everyone is rocking them, or the knockoffs. Get the spoon.

I agree with Chris on this one. I see a lot of cars with Racing Harts but not Spoons but a lot of people also rock slips. Its all up to what you want.

yea but you dont see alot of spoons on the road because most people that bought them (when they were available), bought them for racing, and race cars are beaters. there is practially zero clean 15in spoons out there. the racing harts may be played out, but i like them and they are priced nicely. BUT i dont like them as much as i like the spoons. damn. such a tough decision.

I love Racing Harts. Not that particular model though. And I hate slipstreams.

i hate the slipstreams too. ive had two sets and i ended up selling both sets. they kinda ruined it for the REAL spoon wheels. im still undecided. im going over to look at the wheels off the car tonight and i might buy them. i dunno though, the only white wheels ive ever had was on my suzuki gsxr and those only had three spokes but were still the biggest pain in the ass to keep clean!

yes, but all in all the Spoons are more rare to come by than CPFs. Kels, If you like the CPFs get them! They are nice wheels... Im just saying if it were me Id go with the spoons.... I like being different.

so i went to look at the CPFs, they were in pretty good condition, but they just wouldnt look good on my car and i just cant bring myself to get white wheels. but ive been thinking about it and i have decided that im going to keep my eyes open for a set of spoons, some mugen RNRs or (maybe) a set of silver regamasters. jdm land has silver 15in regamasters but i have to think about that one. thanks for everyones imput.

ask yourself if you really need to spend the extra for that weight
differential.

if yes, go for it and get nice tires too.

if not, get knock-offs and save up the balance for your next car.

Go with what your Hart tells you.

Spoon's are nice, theyre simple yet bring a car to life. If you go to a car show or meet with those wheels youre bound to park next to someone with the same ones.

You didn't tell us the specs on either wheel so how can we help?
Choosing wheels is not a matter of what looks pretty. You need wheels with proper BC and hub center that have minimum 42 mm offset if stock and 45 mm if dropped. Whether you choose 16 or 17 or 15" wheels with matching tires with 23.5" diameter then can depend on what you like to look at.
