I was thinking about buying a set of these, but have a couple questions.
Do any of you who have these wheels, Rota wheels in general or even aftermarket wheels in general have any problems with vibration from the wheels (versus the tires)?
In recent years I've only run OEM wheels, albiet not the stock wheels for the car. The reason for this is that I've always gotten some amount of annoying vibration from any aftermarket wheels I've run, even a set that was hubcentric for my car.
I like the looks of many aftermarket wheels, but this is my daily driver and I drive 85 miles a day, so how it drives is more important than how it looks. So I'd like to hear from those who have any kind of good or bad exerience with aftermarket wheels, and Rota GT-3's in particular.
TIA,
Jim

i think you answered your own question there.


and FWIW, if a good set of wheels are hubcentric (like you mentioned) and the tires are balanced correctly, then you shouldnt have any problems.. not even from rotas. rota is actually a very good wheel company... just recenty known for making replicas. but they have been building wheels for a VERY long time.

and if you want better quality, just pay for it! dont be a cheap ***! you said the driveability was more important.. so order some Mugen, volk, work.. something MUCH better!

 

GT3's all the way!

 

are those 15's?

 

Who said I was cheap? I like the GT3's and wonder if they run true or not.

So you are saying that you don't get any vibration from them?

Believe me, if you lived where I do, you wouldn't put a high dollar wheel on a daily driver - One pot hole and they're done.

 

I have been using Rota wheels for years with zero problems. I've used 15, 16 and 17" sizes, and models like Slipstream, C10, C8, Autox, GT3, Torque, Grid and Boost. I have nothing but good things to say about them all. Some were not even hubcentric and I didn't get any vibration with them.

As long as the tires are properly balanced you should be problem free

 

rotas all colore's bolt pattern's and size's in stock. Highend Autosports

 

aslong as the wheels are properly balanced you got the hub rings and the tires are mounted in the right direction you shouldnt get a vibration get em !
