Dave Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 sweet- racing harts are nice dunno about 19s though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeT Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Yes they are a bargain. They also do corrode easily and don't really stand up to the UK weather very well at all. Every set that i have ever seen do fit over UK brakes too. Be aware that these wheels are no longer available and if you damage one which is easy to do no replacement is available. Also the chrome rim cannot be refurbished, they will have to be polished which is a service that Envy offer Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR.B Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 I'd say snap them up mate. Mine were roughly three times that price when I bought mine new so IMO it's a steal. They are however as mentioned a buggar to keep clean! Lee - the CR's are still available - it's the CX and CXR that have been discontinued.

The ones in the pic dont seem to have any signs of corrosion and the lips still bling even though they're two years old, its all down to how well theyre looked after, and TBH all Jap alloys should stay away from salt water.
