The Racing Hart C2 and by Racing Hart C5 by Takechi Project are JDM Wheels from the height of the tuner craze. The Racing Hart Type C2 was the update the the original Racing Hart Type C. I believe the main differences of the Racing Hart C2 is the center cap has an aluminum center in lieu of the carbon fiber setup, the faces have a polished / diamond cut finished instead of painted silver and I believe theres only one bigger size face 18″+ where the Racing Hart Type C had 2 sizes for 16″ and 17″+. Pictured are the Racing Hart C2 ona Honda Accord and the Racing Hart C5 on an Honda Integra DC2. Note the shoutout to DAZZ Motorsport which was the Racing Hart US Distributor which started in San Gabriel, CA.
The Racing Hart Type C2 are JDM Wheels that came out in the late 90’s, however this set of C2’s are bolted to a Old School Mazda R100 over 20 years older than the wheels. The Racing Hart Type C2 are jdm wheels that were the updated version of the Original Racing Hart Type C by Takechi Project. Major differences of the two were machined finish instead of painted and a less complex center cap with an aluminum coin in lieu of carbon fiber. This Mazda R100 on Racing Hart C2 was spotted at the Vintage Japanese Motor Union Meet hosted at Love20Bee Wheels in La Verne, CA.Check out those Wilwood Brakes behind the Racing Hart Type C2 on the Mazda R100.Racing Hart Type C2 tucking behind the rear panel.Racing Hart Type C2 by Takechi Project on Mazda R100
The Racing Hart C2 and Racing Hart C5 were 2 big JDM wheel releases in the late 90’s from Takechi Project. The Racing Hart Type C2 replaced the Original Racing Hart Type C, the main differences were machined face as opposed to the original silver; and different center cap system with a polished center coin as opposed to original carbon fiber. The Racing Hart Type C5 sort of replaced the Racing Hart Type C Tracer with its 5 spoke design. Main differences were fatter spokes and also the different center caps as with the C2. I can personally remember when these wheels were released in the US, it was pretty big news in the scene, new japanese wheels don’t seem to have the same reactions these days. Racing Hart wheels are produced by Takechi Project in Japan.Pictured in the ad are the Racing Hart C5 on a JDM Toyota Altezza. – Racing Hart Type C2 Racing Hart Type C5 – JDM Wheels
