Anyone track Mugen GPs?

iomatic · 12-16-2007, 06:18 PM

They're cheaper than the Volk TE37s, but the Motegis are even cheaper. I think that Greg's recommendation of the Team Dynamics seems like a steal. What's the real verdict on forged vs. cast? Durability is always nice, and yeah, I'll still keep my race wheels on for DD 1/2 the year...

thoughts.

I love my Motegis but haven't tracked them.

from what ive always known, is that forged is better than cast. hence the higher prices. and the GP's are pretty light for an 18" wheel. either way i think u cant really go wrong with the forged motegi's, but the GP's are just siiick!

GPs are also a lot cheaper than Volks or SSRs or even other forged, super-lightweight rollers.

Looking at the colleghillshonda ones. Freaking awesome deal.
