I found these pics at megamodz (uk) and fell for these wheels coz they are sexy as. Apparently they are 19" rays center lock alloys. After searching all over the net, i couldn't find anything on them, but the main problem is obviously they are center lock wheels.
These small pics are all i have;

I was wondering...
-Do they come in 4 lug?
-Do they come in 16"
-Are there are any other wheels with similar looks?
(ie: a six spoke version of spoonSW388/rota slips)

Thanks for any info u can give me.

 

oh ****..is that a nissan primera...??
naw...ive seen someone with an NSX with those on...but dont really know too much about em...

 

Is IT Me Or Does CENTER LOCK mean that its a single pice meaning that it obv dosent come in 4-lug

 

Thanks for that, yep it's a primera and here's the link to those wheels;

At least i now know they exist on other cars which reduces the chance that they are custom racetrack wheels only while giving me hope i can get them in 4 lug. Damn those wheels are hot, i'm thinking those in flat gunmetal or dark flat bronze would be killer!
Anyone with more info or pics, pleaz post up!

 

I have to have this style of wheels! Can someone tell me how i would go about getting them? What does getting custom wheels involve?

 

You're better off getting a one lug conversion than looking for them in 4 lug.

 

Hmmm... interesting, maybe in the future. So far, the only rims that resemble the one i posted are rota n1rs which coincidently have been discontinued and are super rare;




Just my luck.

Exactly that's what i was thinking.

 

The main problem is i don't know what the wheels are anymore, since people say they've never seen them before and claim they are not rays at all.
There's no info or pics on them on the net whatsoever (including rays website & their distributors), so i don't know if they come in 16" or are avail at all .

As soon as i find out what they are called, what sizes they come in and if they only come in center lock, then i'll seriously consider the single lug conversion no matter how crazy it seems.

 

there is a volk wheel that looks like that. I tried to find a pics but couldn't. I should be able to find pics at home. it looks the same but its not as plain.

 

here is the info and picks you need/want

fuggin oogly imo

 

is there a way to do a center lock conversion?

this way no one would want to jack the rims

 

tsw had this center lock wheel with adapter that was out in like 2000. it was basically an adapter that mounted to your lugs. kinda gay.

 

Hey thanks heeps 4 the links, I'll look into it.

I have a set of these, I love them. People that have never seen them before flip when they find out that they are rotas. Rare Rotas are just the biggest oxymoron

sorry to burst ur bubble but those arent rare and its kinda whack that people think that those wheels hold hella value

when i put my te37s up for trade like two dudes offered me those claiming OHHH THERE REALLY Rare

 

Nah, i'm pretty sure those posted are rota n1rs since the white ones were FS under that name and the silver ones were from the rota site also under that name. Can't comment if they are supposed to be te37 knockoffs coz i don't know exactly when each model was released, but they do look similar however are not the same. They are rare coz they were discontinued long ago, and are really outdated so hardly anyone knows of them or bothers to notice them.
Te37s are tyte though, def part of my wish list.

It's okay you never burst my bubble

I never once mentioned that they hold any sort of high monetary value so I'm confused as to how you interpreted that from my post. To me its more personal, and era specific value that makes these wheels appeal to me.

I'd try my hardest to not chuckle if someone tried to trade me a cast for a forged aluminum wheel too. ...Regardless of its rarity or popularity its just an unfair trade.

From my sole perception, given the fact that they were discontinued ~1997-1998 before the Rota craze hit hondas, the fact that in all of Chicago I've only seen one other set of them and that was in about '98, and barely seen a handful of them on ht in all these years I do consider them 'rare', uncommon, or whatever you want to call it.

The wheels are not something someone can just go and purchase as they please, quite a bit of tracking down would have to be done for a set. If you want to prove me wrong link me to a few recent classifieds where n1r's are for sale.

Don't mean to ***** my car or hi-jack the thread(my apologies to the thread starter, I'll take it down if you prefer) but here's an old pic with them on the car.



And this is the closest wheel I've seen that Rota prolly knocked-off for the n1r. Manaray s02's. I would REALLY like to find a set of these someday.
