Hey guys,

I came across a wheel company that seems to have a lightweight forged wheels at a very competitive price for what they're offering.

I've been in touch with one of the sales guys and he's been very helpful the best part of it all is that they're offering great discounts right in return for pictures!

So here's where I'm at I have 3 designs in mind and I'm kinda sure on the finish that I want but I'm not 100% sure of the design yet, I'm hoping some of you can share your toughts on which route you would take.

They call this the RTF Track Spec-10

Rtf track spec-5.f

Rtf Track spec-5 the wheels in this picture are 19x10 (23lbs) / 19x11

They also make 3pc wheels but I'm trying to keep cost & weight as low as possible.

They're offering me free finishing upgrades and shipping the issue is which design do I go with? Personally I think all of them would look great on my 16 Charger hellcat

They offer bead seat knurling. Make sure to have them do that.

I like the last wheel in the first wheel's finish.

Are the young saying a 19 inch wheel will fit over the brakes?

 

[Fight On SC!]

I like the last one Spec 5. Let us know how much and where to get them. I might be in the market for set of road racing wheels.

 

[2017Hellcat]

Of those three choices, definitely the Track Spec 5.
What sizes are you getting ?
How much for a set of 4 ?

Is a great deal in my eyes. I'm not allowed to state my pride to anyone but I can say the total for 20" is under $4,300 shipped.

Yes they do offer bead seat knurling

Have to say that 5.f in that stainless finish would look nice on my Redline Red....

They are offering some pretty good deals. It won't hurt to give them a call or drop them an email.

 

[Srt16driver]

I've pulled the trigger on a set of Track Spec-5 in 20" with the wheels being shot peened, bead seat knurling, Two-Tone finishing, and custom Hellcat center caps all for under $4k shipped.

I'll keep everyone posted.

Thanks for the help!

I have 18 inch and OEM Brembo's

Can you please post a picture of your Hell Cat Cat?

Linda, you run 18 inch wheels over the front 6 piston brembos? What wheels? They must be 3 piece with custom barrels?

 

[Radride]

Are the young saying a 19 inch wheel will fit over the brakes?

Yes. A 19" wheel will fit over the brakes. The face design dictates the caliper clearance.

Well yes HHP Ultra-Lite 3-Piece Bolted 18x10 Aluminum Rear Drag Rim (2015-2016 Hellcat Vehicles) - HHPDRAGRhcat
Looking at the link you can see the picture of my car.
But I also had the 18-inch Welds.
and you need to use these HHP Shortened Rear Sway Bar End Links For Weld Wheels With Factory Sway Bar

Nice selection for Drag Drag Wheels

But know other racers that have other brands and they still were using the OEM Brembos

Awesome. I thought those only fit the rears. I didn't realize they fit the front 6 piston brakes as well.
This opens the door for tires I hope. Such a small selection of track day rubber in 20 inch rim size.

Time to see if there is anything good in the 18 inch and possibly 19 inch that will warrant a set of smaller track day wheels!

(Sadly this is just research for the moment)

*Edit... I just realized the fronts are 18x5.... for some reason I thought they were 18x10....

Congrats on your new wheel purchase Srt16driver. I went to their website and it looks like they changed the design of the second wheel that you posted. I like the redesign much better! So much so I think I am going to buy a set. Just curious of the size and offset you went with. Also what does shot peening the wheel do?

Shot peening makes the surface denser and stronger. It is used in many applications to add that extra level of strength that computerized milling, forging, and material selection don't complete.

Polishing is another way to make surfaces stronger. Titanium is VERY sensitive to surface flaws, stress risers and roughness. Aluminum is, also, which is why aluminum parts often look so smooth. Steel is among the least sensitive to surface texture and polish.
