those are RH revolutions.

they are in no way affiliated with Racing Harts just to let you know.

dankgummy 03-23-2004 02:25 PM

wtf? really? i thought they ARE racing harts, just not the multi-piece forged versions. anyone else know?

RXhusker 03-23-2004 02:40 PM

Those definitely are NOT Racing Harts. Racing Hart does make a one piece version but that is not it. Definite knock-off.

RXhusker 03-23-2004 02:41 PM

I have some Volck wheels for sell if you want to buy them for $3200

j/k ;)

BIU 03-23-2004 03:27 PM

Well dont be mistaken.... RH revolutions does make good wheels...

but they are just a company that makes Raching Hart replica models

Are you sure they are in no way affiliated? Since all the RH designs have usually been cheaper 1-piece versions of Racing Hart models, plus the have the same importer, plus if you go to www.racinghart.com (which goes to the importer, Dazz Motorsports home page) you will see both Racing Hart and RH models listed together.

My understanding had always been that RH Evolution was simply a lower-cost line from the same company that offered up near-Racing Harts at a much lower cost.

It's very possible I'm wrong, but I have to believe they are SOME way affiliated.

The only Affiliation is that Dazz Motorsports imports them both...

RH revolutions are made in the States.
Racing Harts are made in Japan.

thats my understanding ;)

If the RHs are made in the States, how does Dazz import them? :)
*just hassling you a bit*

You very well may be right, I had been told by one dealer that sold both that they were affiliated a few years back, and I never really cared enough to look into it/dispute it.

But, with the striking similarities, not to mention the fact that they often use similar names, I would think they would have been copyright-infringed into oblivion by now if they truly just made knockoffs.

I think you guys are wrong

RH is a branch of Racing hart

Could you dig up some proof?

We'd all like to know

mikeb 03-23-2004 07:09 PM

I'm trying
I will call some car shops

mdw33333 03-23-2004 07:16 PM

Ok, I'll set you all straight.:D RH Evolutions are a Racing Hart wheel. They are a more affordable 1 piece version, as mentioned above. I've been selling Racing Hart wheels for years. We've always purchased them through distribution, however, on warranty returns I've delt directly with Racing Hart. Trust me, they're Racing Harts. By the way, Dazz Motorsports is the "mother company" distributing Racing Hart, Lowenhart, RH Evolution, etc. in the US.

mdw33333 03-23-2004 07:23 PM

Comparing Racing Hart wheel and RH Evolution wheels is like comparing apples to oranges. They are two totally different animals. However, RH Evolution is a fine quality wheel.

mikeb 03-23-2004 07:27 PM

thanks for the info

BIU 03-23-2004 07:34 PM

alright everything is clear now Thanks! :cool:

i dont have web proof that they are.just take my word for it.

BIU 03-23-2004 10:20 PM

Well what do you know.....

i have just done some research and went to the OFFICIAL Harts website.......

and RH revolutions are NOT part of Harts Racing.....

Go check it out yourselves ! ;)

http://www.hartwheels.co.jp/top/menu-index.htm

Theres Lowenhart, Racing Hart, Luftdrag, Eurohart, Bersaglio, Bluhen........... all product lines of Hart Wheels...

but NO RH revolutions.....

so i think i stand correct

mikeb 03-23-2004 10:30 PM

mdw3333 does this for a living

Kel Rx8 03-23-2004 11:09 PM

racing hart
;) brand states racing hart

Well lots of companies state that because the affiliation btw RH revolutions and Racing Harts is not clear in our society and that is a good way to get more business.

thats why many people swears that RH rev is Racing Harts while some people are unclear...

im not trying to say for sure whether or not RH evo IS or IS NOT a line of Hart wheels...

but im just saying that even the OFFICIAL Harts site does not have them.

Please be aware that i am not trying to raise an arguement... im just laying out the facts to solve this

Kel Rx8 03-24-2004 12:07 AM

biu i wish there was a way to settle this once and for all
im gonna check with my boy tommorow he just got the one piece cx r/h wheel for his vw im ask if there is any sign of a racing hart logo on the wheel or such.

XDEEDUBBX 03-24-2004 02:59 AM

mike is right...RH meaning racing heart is a branch of heart wheels.. DAZZ actually bought them off..how do i know?? two of my friends used to work there for 3 years...

XDEEDUBBX 03-24-2004 03:01 AM

put it this way..its kinda like how Rays wheels and volks..volks are the wheels and rays imports them... and they have a new line called g-games... a lower priced version of volks..
