Katana C5's vs RH C5's

Edit: sorry, if this belongs in the tire/wheel forum, please move. Just want some opinions


About to make a crucial decisions, but would like some opinions between the two.


Katana C5's

racing hart C5's

my car is neptune blue w/a new stillen bodykit installed, but i've never heard of "katana" before. Is it a knockoff brand of Racing hart's?

im getting these "Katana C5's" for a GREAT deal in 18's wrapped in new kumho's, but i want to know what rep this company has.

i was going to go w/ MM Evo5's, but its 1400 i dont have.

If you want a really nice wheel, look for some used Racing Hart C5 3pcs. They don't make them anymore, but they are gorgeous. Anyways since that design was made famous by Racing Hart, I would go with them. I'm sure the Katanas are cheaper, but they are knockoffs.

if you got a deal then go with katanas... yeah.. they look the same, but personally, i would go with RH because like vyrus said they are the true "owner" of that wheel...

yes like they all said previously, go with RH c5's. the only difference is in price and quality. if youve got the money, dont hesitate. id jump on those wheels anyday, actually i want them. goodluck with your decision.

I like the RH Evo C5s. I had them on my old Max (page 2 of my homepage). They were to skinny for a 5th gen, but would look good on a 4th.


Oh, and this is my 6,000th post
