they have rediculous offsets and wide wheels

yes, i know. theres a white suby around here that is slammed on rota g force (i think??) and it looks hot. but i cant find i set that i like in that size with the right offset.

i was exagerating when i said ridiculous, i think i need something like a +12 with a 17x9.5. but im not 100% on that so i could be way off...

rota's are good for 90% of ppl out there, because most ppl never really pushes there cars. so why do they need $2k set of wheels to go be BA at the cruises? they don't so thats where the cheap wheels come into play.

now this pool has 2 bad choices.

1. there not exactly weak but then again there not forged volks, so you decide if there stregth or lack there of, is enough to take what you will put them though..

2. no there not as durable as "everything else" out there, thats why there super cheap.

so this poll sucks the big one....

You rang? I like your plan of rotas and refreshing the volks. It's all in the hips, it's all in the hips... BTW what bolt pattern does that car have and what offset/s does it run? Just curious.

Just get a set of Soft 8s and be done with it.

If it's 5 lug, it's 5x114.3

Same as Ford Mustang and Ranger, as well as Mitsubishi and Toyota.

I'm pretty sure wes's car is 4 lug...

[DelSlow]

^ agreed.

[weshole]

Werd. It's 4X114.3 factory offest is 42mm.

[Afsil80]

I didn't know if you were 4 or 5 lug.

Sorry since I never paid attention to 4 lug bolt patterns. No 5 lug, no care.

And shut up Faber. Don't even bother responding.

here is good article mugen rnr prone to cracking. dont get me wrong mugen wheels are the sheezy i just couldnt justify spending that much on wheels. if i buy another set one day will probably go all out. as far as rota's go own a set love them had them for two years still mint!
