Default Buddyclub P.1 Racing SF Wheel

I just wonder if anybody will be interest in this wheel. Buddyclub only have them available in 15x6.5 4:100 but I am planning to ask them to produce 15x6.5 or 15x7 5:114.3. Colourwise will be in Bronze or Gun-metallic and flat black either two. Price will be around $150-170USD per wheel and they weigh 13 LBs per wheel.

Please give me your opinion or any suggestions.

I'm sorta sick of looking at my rotas...I guess i could get another set. I want a set of rotas for every day of the week.

Because there are actually many people who:
1) think spoon/evo and the rota wheels are ugly to begin with
2) don't like buying copy wheels
3) prefer a different style wheel
4) know how strong the Buddy Club P1 / Kosei K1 are for track use and are willing to pay a bit more for the same kind of strength from the SF

your fooling yourself if you think your buying a forged wheel for 175 bucks...

but i can agree with you on the rest, style is a matter of preference

K1/P1 and SF are not forged, they are cast... they are pretty much regarded as the strongest cast wheel on the market

Anyhow, here are some pics of the 15" SF on a Civic SIR

the forged version, QF, is available in 16". In fact, it is the lightest 16" wheel out there, lighter than Spoon, Mugen, Volk, etc.

P1 QF are available through
http://www.aj-racing.com http://www.ipsracing.com http://www.randdmotorsports.com

the price is in the same range as spoon 16"

the purpose of this post is really to see how much interest there is to use the 15" version of these wheels as track wheels...

incidentally, the tires mounted on the Civic SIR were the Dunlop FM901 in 195/55/15 size

Strange, they look like Advan RGs or SSR Competitions.

We don't have them in 5:114.3 for the moment but we are asking Buddyclub to make them.

If you place an order no it will take 8-10 weeks for deliver.
