Yeah I hope so. Original idea was 0 offset, but I wanted "whole" lip measurements. So -6 was the closest. Been sweating ever since lindy (justchill) said "good luck".

right now they are 19x9 et-6 front and 19x10.5 et-6 rear.

so what do yall think?
It's gonna look fresh all chromed.


Imho, racing hart made some quality wheels.

Yeah these are old school racing harts. When they were still legit! I think these wheels were discontinued early 2000.

thanks for all the kind words everybody. These wheels are giving me motivation to actually finish my build.

Oh and to match the wheels, my ls400 calipers are going to get chromed. Possibly with red anodized hardware. And I might make the dust shield out of carbon fiber...not sure yet on that!

Ok...so finally like a decade later my wheels are done. I only got 1 as there was a "ups account error". So here is one front wheel. 19x9.5 et-6. The front lip is almost 3.5"

These are the black wheels, only they were rebuilt to more aggressive specs and then chromed. Well if your referring to the black with polished lip wheels. These are racing hart cx-r 19x9.5 and 10.5 et-6 all around. They came +26 and +22, since they were 2 piece wheels i had to find a company who worked with them. Wheel flip was that company...If your referring to the all black wheels those were loaner vorsteons same size but 0 offset.
