Default What colour Rota Boosts?


+


I either want silver or gunmetal/polished lip. Silver is safe and i know it will look good, gunmetal could look even better or could just end up looking like the wheels need a clean and not really do anything for the cars visual impact unlike the silver rims above.

Also been tempted by bronze but dont wanna risk that with not seeing a bronze rota rim in the flesh yet.

Opinions please. Ive change mind from silver to the gunmetal and im swaying back towards the silver again ops:

I think the gold or silver would look good on that integra.

Boost arn't on his site yet, and they do only come in 17". Also the polished lip were special ordered as Rota dont actual intend to do the machined lip boosts

I should get them tomorrow with toyo T1R tyres, gone for the gunmetal with lip as he only has 3 sets of these in 4x100, and not sure if he'll get anymore. The guy has 6000 wheels

Bronze and silver were tempting too, just took the plunge and gone for gunmetal/lip, should guy nice with my JDM Type R HID headlights when Moody

Im the uk supplier

Rota will make any wheel in any fitment pretty much, when your supplier says they havnt released them yet, they just mean no-ones ordered them yet, cos as far as I know they ALL can be made in any stud pattern.

Ive got some interesting rotas here at the moment..

Black grids

17" slipstreams in 4x100

17" grids in honda fitments.

The boosts are my favourites thou..

Just taken delivery of 5000 wheels, to add to my 1000 in stock
