Unforunately the Racing Hart C5 I believe are no longer available. Only
the RH Evo C5 is. They've been around for a while but I still like them.
Buy what you like and what make you .

RH Evolution is a DAZZ product, and it's not made in America...it's made in Taiwan. Racing Hart is made in Japan, but they licensed out the name to DAZZ so that they can make their own line of wheels.

Thosre are not "Racing Hart" those are "RH Evolution C5" wheels.
Unfortunately many dealers do not know the difference or choose
to call the RH Evos as "Racing Hart"

Here are the real Racing Hart C5 multi peice wheels

The RH Evos that i've seen were made in the Philippines. Either way they
are definitely not Japanese.

Dont take this the wrong way but C-5's are old and used a lot on Civics, I would go with something a little more classy like Maya wheels, ah the Maya, NICE!

I think they might be discontinued in Japan now. They used to be listed on the Hart Wheels website, and now they're not.

I 'd have to agree that they are played out especially since the Concept Five (How funny that it's acronym is C5 ....) has a very similar wheel ever since the real C5s were discontinued.
