On the site where it says 500/set is that for 4 or for 2 ?
Sorry if this sounds dumb but that seems cheap or all rotas normally priced like this?

hey, how much are you paying for shipping? I've always wondered if it was worth it to buy things that expensive from the states, it seems so much cheaper until you add in shipping and tax at the boarder and boarder clearence charges.

I just bought mine from Honda Driven (Charles) for $475 shipped (Rota C8's 16" Bronze).

Mine should be arriving next week.

Here's a little tech: What lugs do you plan on running? I have heard awful things about Kyokugen and the key stripping, so I think I am going with some nice Daiyama lugs.

It seems kinda funny putting fairly expensive lugs on cheap *** wheels.

hey 93SSPHATCH, where are you getting ur from. do they have a website.
He used to be a Honda-tech member, until "Tony" the Best Buys Forum moderator wouldn't allow him to post his promotions b/c he wasn't a B&M shop; he is strictly internet sales.

His name is Charles, and his Honda-tech name was Hondadriven. He has done many great deals for Honda-tech. If you shoot him an AIM at B18Charles or an email at hondadriven@hotmail.com he can answer more questions for you.

He has GREAT PRICES on SKUNK2 and ROTA WHEELS. He just sold me a set of C8's for $475 shipped.

Here are some of his previos threads/sales:

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=414713
https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=250157
https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=327064

I have no affiliation with him. All I am doing is passing on the price that I was given just one week ago. I have also ordered a pair of Skunk2 cam gears from him during his GB.

its worth it, i have two friends up here in regina that have ordered rota wheels from wallee at machiii.net, have had no problems at all. good customer service, he said the wheels should be here in one to two weeks, hopefully all goes well. he also threw in a hubring set and lugnuts for free. ... wallee will hook u up.oh yeh and its 520 american shipped, but then i will be tagged at the border for customs and brockarage feez and such. hmmm oh well thats the price i have to pay. and yess these wheels a proven 10 horsepower gain. jk

The owns.

Good buy on the wheels, I hope you like them.

I am using black gorilla lug nuts from jcwhitney, they are a little bit lighter and smaller, but they left my wallet heavier than the volks would have.
