Default ROTA SLIPSTREAM INFO (Spoon knock off) look here

hey i just wanted to help you guys out who are talking about getting the slipstreams. if you are just email walee (the one who organized the group buy) directly. he is from mach 3. he is a good personal friend of mine. they should have the 5 lug very soon for the itr, but they have many different colors for 4 lug applications now. best part is you will get them for $370 if you say you know me.
his email is wgon173739@earthlink.net. and you can use credit card if need be. i am not trying to advertise for him because he sells those things like water, i am just trying to pass on a savings to h-tech members. thanks.

I'm definately interested, I wanted to verify what size/sizes are available, I'll go with 15's if that is the only option otherwise I would be interested in 16's for the street and run my OEM wheels for the track.
Thanks for any other info.

Does anyone know for sure if these will clear the brakes on our Type R's? That offset puts them about as far out as I would want to go, so spacers wouldn't really be an option.

I guess I'll just have to wait until I see a picture of them *on* a Type R...

for the itr folks there will be more colors available. gunmetal was just the first color of choice. i believe the first batch has been sold out in 5 lug. i would just wait for the flat black though. it is almost dead on to the spoon wheel. the weight of the 15inch wheel is 12lbs.. will there be a 16inch wheel? they are looking into it now, but i don't see it coming out that soon. but if you are patient it will come. for four lug applications there are numerous colors. http://208.56.35.243/rota%20slipstream.htm
that shows you the current colors.
jason, i will try and see what i can do for you, he said is going to call me tomorrow. email me your info that you supplied him and i will take care of it. the name you used on gbc etc... one side note, if you plan on using a credit card since the price is so inexpensive he has to charge you the credit card machine charge, but it isn't very much.

i got my regamasters for weight purposes.
isn't a spoon knock-ff kinda defeating the purpose of this wheel?

like a ADR Spider compared to a Mugen MF8.

I realize the real thing is a lot more money, but there's a reason for it.

For ITR, stick with the real deal. On anything 4 lug, go for it. 4 lug ain't where it's at anyway.

bah, it's still about 6 lbs lighter than stock. 12 lbs a piece isn't bad at all, and that money can be spent in better places.

hey mike i agree with you completely. not everyone is willing to spend that much money on wheels though. this for them is an alternative. this deal may not be for everyone, but for whoever takes advantage of it, kudos to them.
