Re: Rota Wheels....

So what is the cheapest you guys have seen for slips in 15x6.5 in gun metal? What do you guys think about using the stock tires 185 65 15s on these rims?

Re: Rota Wheels....

I'm looking for cheap, lite and good looking. The slips are good looking at the same time they are 6lbs lighter and about 400 for the set!!

If you have a better suggestion.. Please let me know.

I've been saving for those exact rims in pink, most people will think they're lame girls wheels, but experienced import tuners know they're a tribute to some of the most legit wheels ever made. Should I put on one Ronal teddy bear wheel to complete the look?

The original hayashi wheels go for around $8000 a set if you can find them.

Re: Rota Wheels....

I feel bad for the guys who actually shell out a couple grand on desmond regamasters or spoon sw338 and everyone just thinks they're rolling on rota slips.
