If one is the Racinghart C5 and the other is the Evo C5,
the Racinghart is forged, 3 piece, $500, strong, light and made in Japan
The Evo is 1 piece, cast, $175, heavy, not as strong and made in the US.

$175 is super cheap. You might be able to find them used for that price...For 18s retail is $280, $220 for 17s.

I'll have to agree with boilermaker 100%. May I just add some things.

I think the first pic is the first release of the C-5 under the Racing Hart brand. It's a multi-piece forged rim...more expensive... these rims are true-blue JDM rims..

The second one is the RH (racing hart diffusion) Evolution C-5. It's a single piece rim and is cheaper. And although, the RH Evolution line is mainly designed for japanese cars, most of the ones in the product line aren't made in Japan anymore..

more or less I'm just repeating what boiler said hehehe

Alrigth, sorry about the quality due to the fact that I am in Vancouver right now and the computer is not nearly as good as the one I own.

Bingo... they're show rims like pretty much all other knockoffs. The go-fast rims are the expensive originals.
