Just got off the phone to ROH head office. Apparently that don't make ANY 5X139.7 steel rims anymore. So no trak2 zuk rims. Consider this an un-verified rumour but I wouldn't go selling any if you have em' (or at least don't sell em cheap
)

This is by no means hard evidence, but I have heard from a few people in the industry ( tyre industry that is) that the Speedy sunraisia style wheels are very poor quality with such issues as not running true, and not balancing at all (400+ grams used on one wheel
)
Once again, this is not my experience and also could be considered rumour

im running speedys on mine - have been for over a year and a half now - balanced with 31" coopers no probs... most grammage in one spot is bout 80g on one rim at one point, but that could be the tyre alone...

I did have
CSA made "Sunraysias" (I think they were called "Rangers"?) on my old Feroza and had that exact issue. They had a huge amount of "run out" (sideways movement when spinning) and were impossible to balance. The replacement set were the same.... and promptly got traded in for a set of alloys.
PS: If you're not 100% certain what the brand was then it's probably best not to put their name on here.
These were the wheels I had:

speedy wheels did have an issue with there rims crackin around the hubs but as soon as that was brought to there attention it was fixed and faulty rims were replaced, and the balance has got more to do with the tyre then the rim unless its badly buckled, and even then for the rim to through the balance out more then the tyre it self i dont think it would be on the vehicle
ive got speedy wheels on mine as there the only ones i could find with a 15x8 sunraysia rim with a 5/139.7 pcd
