If you're into drifting or just love a solid wheel, let me tell you about the GramLights 57XR. This is the latest addition to the "R" series, and it’s not just some pretty face. It’s got the pedigree to back it up, having been tested in the heat of competition like D1GP and Formula Drift.
What really stands out are those 2x6 slender spokes. They’re not just for looks; they give the wheel a unique character while keeping things strong. The machining on the spokes is a nice touch too, creating an embossed logo that just pops. It’s a subtle way to show off some individuality without being too flashy.
Now, let’s talk performance. This wheel is built to handle the rigors of drifting. The knurling finish on the bead seat is a game changer. It helps keep your tires locked in place, even when you’re pushing hard for that perfect drift. You won’t have to worry about slippage ruining your run.
For the 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 sizes, they’ve included the EH2+ Hump. This is especially useful for those who like to run lower tire pressures for better traction. It minimizes the risk of the tire bead dropping, which can happen when you’re really getting into it. This design element is a must-have for serious drifters.
Here’s a quick rundown of the specs:
- Construction: Casting 1-piece wheel
- Safety Standard: JWL + R Spec 1
- Color: Dark Bronze (Z2)
- Size: 18x9.5
- PCD: 5x114.3
- Offset: 22
- Bore: 73.1
- Drill: 29-15
- Face: Face-2
Just a heads up, center caps are sold separately, and the price is for one wheel, not a set. But trust me, this wheel is worth it if you’re serious about your setup.
So, if you’re looking for a wheel that combines style and performance, the 57XR is definitely worth considering. It’s designed for those who want to stand out on the track while still getting the job done. Check it out!
