Who has MS-01R rims? What do you think of them? ie weight, offset etc?

I have 15x7 +35mm set. Wondering if the are good for motorsports? Or is there better out there?

IMO, yeah they are. The MS-01R had a wider flatter 'blade' than the MS-01, so it's arguably stronger for track work. The 'R' also came in 15 x 7. The standard MS-01 only came in 14 x 6 and 15 x 6.5.

I have the 15x7 ones. But I do not have the centre caps, bolts or fake locking pins. They com up on Japan Yahoo Sales sometime though.

I have the MS-01Rs for track, and they seem alright (however have nothing to compare this to). With tyres fitted, they are 2kg lighter than an SE rim (with tyre fitted), so its a benefit there at least. Mine came with 3 sets of nut covers etc, however I prefer them without it

It's pretty easy to tell that they are made by Rays, cos they got a huge Rays Engineering sticker on the inside of the rims.

I love the little dish they have, dish is sexy.
