Default Which of these wheel styles would you like to see made into a drag wheel?

A relatively new wheel distributor is looking to manufacture their own line of drag wheels based upon the markets current popular styles. They are considering the following styles:

1. SSR Type C


2. Racing Hart CP035


3. Volk CE28N


4. Mugen MF10


The wheels will be availble is 13x8, 15x7, 15x8 and 15x3.5 in both 4x100 and 5x114.3

They will be made available in Black, Silver, White and Gunmetal.

Vote for the style youd like to see put into production. The company is a Honda-Tech sponsor and they will be following this thread closely. Production on the wheels is looking to start in the next 2 months.

Feel free to make suggestions not listed.

None.

None of those look like drag wheels, but who cares what I think.

maybe Im alone on this one, but Id like a wheel that doesnt look like a drag wheel.
I guess I just wish there were more options than there are... everything seems to be polished, and I would definitely run something painted if I had the option.

Wait, so the point of this is to see what style we'd want in a drag wheel?

I have SSR Type C myself, so if they had a drag style of them, I'd rock them.

Id definitely rock either of these 2 in a drag wheel:

Rota C10 "Mugen MF10 copy"

http://www.rotawheel.com/CIRCUIT%2010%20PAGES.htm

Rota Subzero "Racing Hart CP-035 copy"

http://www.rotawheel.com/SUBZE...4.htm

From what i was told, there will be matching skinnies too

Interested in a 15 X 8 that will fit the RSX and clear its brakes.

Funny thing was I went to Rota's North America distributor to test fit a few wheels to get them to fit the RSX but no luck. I told them I was looking for some drag wheels because there currently wasn't any available in 15s that would fit the RSX. If Rota is the wheel maker then maybe I got the ball rolling.

I voted for the SSR type-c (or competitions) because I am going to get a set for my Integra, and it would be awesome to have matching drag wheels.
