i am looking at new wheels and i found i set i like from HP Design. Anyone hear anything about them and the quality? right now i have Rota J-MEGS (yeah i know they are not great) and i am trying to replace them. Anyways just wondering what people thing about HP Design wheels.

Thanks

 

The smallest wheel they offer is a 17". That alone makes me not want them. But, more importantly, they claim leadership in the Sport Compact market. I've never seen any of their wheels in person, or even for sale on the used market. I don't know if "leader" is the word I would choose to describe that.

 

yeah. i cant really seem to find a review anywhere on them. i have 16s right now and i want to move back to 17s. i don't like how 16 inch rubber cost so much more. and my car is 450whp and i drive it daily. so tires go fast. and i want to bump up to 17 for hopes at getting just that little bit more traction.

 

Um, tires for 16s are generally cheaper than for 17s, while keeping the same total diameter.

And a larger diameter wheel won't offer any more traction, at all.

 

i try not to run crap tires. i have KDW2s on there now. the size i need for 16 to be the same as factory is a 215/45/16. they are a odd size and cost more then a 205/40/17 in the same make tire. believe me i have been pricing these up.
