Ordered Grids in FRSB
 
Originally this was to get other ppls input, but i ordered my wheels so i just decided to change the name.

Ordered Rota Grids, 16x7 in Full Royal Sports Brozne from JLBmotors for $490 to my house by the end of the week. Had 5Zigens order but canceld cuz i got screwed around on them.

dp_yz713 08-14-2006 12:09 PM

thats what i really wanted, but chris (varner88) said the finish wasnt that good and some other guy said that his finish rubbed off during shipping. thats what kinda concerns me about the RSB

WOW!!! I didn't know that......that finish is sooo nice though...look on hondatech under that huuge rota thread.....they have close up pics

rowdy847 08-14-2006 01:10 PM

i thought sub zeros were only 5 lug not 4 is that wrong?

dp_yz713 08-14-2006 01:13 PM

no subzero are in 4 lugs. rota torque are only available 4 lugs in 15". other than 15" is only 5 lugs

:tup: exactly what i am looking at right now lol.

considering the grid in bronze, or RSB, or the subzero in gold now. not sure.

doctor 08-14-2006 01:19 PM

Just got the grids in FRSB and it looks so good...its even darker in person. I too have heard the finish and paint is iffy. Time will tell....

dp_yz713 08-14-2006 01:28 PM

damn see i dont want my wheels too dark. what color is your car doctor. do you have a picture i could see of them on your car. and waht size are yours>?

i would really want my wheels this color, but close would be good enough for me. this is my favorite color on black

Your car looks clean already!

dp_yz713 08-14-2006 02:37 PM

naw i didnt like it. its all good though.

order my set of rota grids 16x7 in full royal sports bronze, and waiting on the shipment from 5zigen japan to come into the states so i can get my red lugs.

doctor 08-14-2006 02:42 PM

They are a slight darker than those...if you're looking for a light bronze, I would prob go for reg. bronze. No pics but Im running 16in. 205/50 on a NPB vic.

nice! How much was your set? You got some 5zigen lugs too?

dp_yz713 08-14-2006 04:51 PM

yah i will have the same setup, 16" grid, FRSB, 205/50, NHBP, and red zigen lugs. i didnt order them yet because they are being shipped to the states. apprently on the same crate that my 5Zigens FN01R-C wheels were on till i canceled them. only ones in stock are the blue ones.

my set shipped was $490. wheels and caps, think i may order the carbon fiber center caps though. they have the red slash through the R on them and it would go good with the zigen lugs

burke420 08-14-2006 05:07 PM

circuit 10, in bronze

dp_yz713 08-14-2006 05:16 PM

lol already orderd grids

VTEK2k2 08-14-2006 07:01 PM

nice choice, cant wait to see them

TeamSF_em2 08-14-2006 07:16 PM

gold's on black = the cleanest.

trust me.

when i powder coated my fat fives i got more love than i expected especially for some stock wheels. everyone thought they were after market wheels and i laughed everytime. it was great.

ragingSPAM 08-14-2006 07:51 PM

rotas suck...but they look good for the price...after working in the wheel business i will never buy replica wheels...i will dish out the cash for the real stuff...but thats just me and a few others

well if we were all rich like you aparently and work in the wheel business then we wouldnt have to settle for second best. i pay 4gs a year for school, and $400 a month for an apartment, and over a thousand a year on books. i dont have the extra money to dish out on a set of wheels for a college car that will just get banged up because no one has respect for other peoples stuff. if it was a show car then i would get the good stuff, but its not.

for you information i had a set of 5Zigens, "the real deal" but canceled them bceause tuition was due right after i ordered and realized my education was more important than my car.

since you work in the "wheel business" i figured you would have better than stock wheels, so take those shitty stock wheels and GTFO!

Please tell me how they suck??? b/c u have no Idea whut ur talking about.....Yes they are knockoffs, but function wise they are good wheels.....If ur talking about non-forged wheels then state that, but for the weekend track guy they are awesome and accomplish what they need to.......please explain.....:)...maybe its the booze talkin, but I gotta know....

dp_yz713 08-16-2006 03:32 PM

^^^exactly. i mean seriously, there is no shitty wheels, some are superior to others. i am pretty sure that there is certain standards that the wheel must pass to be produced, and if they dont meet then im sure they wont get produceed

red05 08-16-2006 03:36 PM

Good choice. I got the Circuit 10's in FRSB from JLB.
