Default 16" rotta rims questions

ok i have a question, would 15" rottas for 450 be a good deal and then if it is, what price is good for 16" i have a deal thats going with two shops and i want to get them as low and reasonable as i can. Also how reliable are they, they arent gonna like bust on me easily are they, are they as tuff as other rims as far as quality. Then also what would be some good tires too go with it that arent that expensive but are just good enough, would sliks be good? Let me know, thanx

That's about the going rate...without tires.

I got mine from Revolutions. Check them out, they appear on GBC a lot. 16" Rota Slipstreams with Kumhos for $840 shipped. Not too bad. Lightweight and cheap.

well i bought the 16's flat black for 530 at this place called redline, all i need to do now is find a place that has good deals on decent tires in south cali. If anyone knows any reply please. They told me that i could pay 900 dollars just for the rims and get them tommorow, because there was like 8 other companies that were in competition to get the last set of rotta rims at this wharehouse. To think, som guy out there is gonna pay that much just to get it in a day, craaazy. Mine are coming in, in a week

did you guys notice any difference with your 16's? Did the car lag a little bit more over the stock 15's???

They are heavier then the 15's but the 16's are still lighter then your stock wheels so it won't "sluggish" (Was that the word you were looking for).
