Have you ever heard of these brands?

Has anyone ever heard of "Rage" or "Drag" wheels? Are they any good?

 

[FRDRICE]

Never heard of rage but the Drag wheels I would say are similar to Rota.

Agreed.

 

[Yannier Quinones]

Thanks for the quick reply, I'm wheel shopping and saw those 2 brands that I never heard of, the Rage wheels are more than likely crap as they go for only $100 for a 17x8 wheel

Drag wheels are much better than Rotas. They meet JWL (Japan Wheel Light) and VIA (Vehicle Inspection Association) standards. And are Dot Approved.

Plus, they are made in Japan.

I'm leaning to buying some of those or just going all out and buying rpf1's

 

[FRDRICE]

I did RPF1s and couldn't be happier. If you want a quote on a set let me know what size you're looking at.

 

[Yannier Quinones]

I'm looking at 17x9 +35 for the RPF1 but, the way my bank account is set up lol I cant buy all 4 at the same time my plan was on buying probably 1 or 2 at a time depending on how much I have left over after all my bills are paid.

 

[FRDRICE]

Haha nice Kevin Hart reference. Pm'd you.

 

[Dar-Dar]

You can get drags with that spec for around $500-$600 shipped.

 

[Yannier Quinones]

@Dar-Dar I'm actually looking for a 17x8 +35 but if I'm going with the RPF1's I want 17x9 because as you may know the look is completely better. And the Drag wheels I like are the DR-31 but they don't have a silver finish so I'm still undecided as to which to get.

 

[Dar-Dar]

The closest available color is in charcoal gray.

[Dar-Dar]

It's $490 shipped on Discounttire.

If I don't end up getting the RPF1's I may just settle for the gunmetal color

Learn something new every day. Thanks.

 

[Yannier Quinones]

So do we all agree these Drag wheels would be a good buy for the price?

 

[Dar-Dar]

I think the only thing about drag wheels is that you'll end up using thin aftermarket lugs for them. Like gorilla lugs.

 

[Yannier Quinones]

Yeah I read about that but I think it was only with cars that have the 5x100 pattern

Nah. Save for Enkeis.
