Quick noob question... How are these relipped if they are welded?

19" racing harts are not welded i believe. they use the same bolt battern as work barrels and lips . i talked to the owner.

also, a welded wheel can still be relipped. it's very possible. even two piece wheels can be done. finding a reputable shop to do so is the hard part.

Nothing special. A conservative set of RTX with Yokohama Envigor 215/50/17s, a few tricks here and there and stock suspension. Ride and steering feel about 20% stiffer.

Yeah, they came with the car. I'll rip the sticker vents off eventually. They're on there good.
