Motegi Racing

Postby Hammer » Tue Mar 11, 2008 7:08 pm

Does anyone know if the wheel brand Motegi Racing is sold in Australia?

Or are they imported under a different name (like so many of the other wheels around)?

I'm after the Motegi Racing SP10 wheel for my SP (go figure).

Or does anyone know if the identical wheel but as a different brand in Oz?

I reckon get Track Lite or Track lite 2...they are forged and pretty light. The rest are just normal cast rims.

Cheers AB7. Much appreciated.

Although the SP10 above are relatively lightweight considering they're 17x7 in size. They're only 7.5kg each. Not quite in the 6+kg range but still considered in the lightweight category - me thinks.

Word of warning though... they are Made in China
It may be a little discrimination on my part... but I work with what I see...

I had a little look into it online but my findings weren't very conclusive
(ok... I read that on www.tirerack.com a while ago and can't seem to find any trace of it now... please correct me if Im wrong!)
