anyone got pics of their car w/ these wheels on it?

im selling my heavy racinghart c5's to rebuild my transmission. and after that
iwant to get some of these.

i the silver em2 so i am trying to decide what color i want. i wanna see what they look like on our
car.

sport bronze, green, or silver.

also does anyone know if they ones they sell on ebay are the real rotas, do they ever make fake rotas. i know rota's are knock-off spoons.

thanks in advance.

 

Imagine some Grids in your mind... now, imagine your car... now put those Grids, on that very car (in your mind, obviously... you don't have them yet LOL)

Do you like? ???



There must be an EM2 with Grids or TE's in the Pic Thread , surely?

1. You can't have a fake Rota, because Rota's themselves are fakes.
2. Rota's knocked off more than just Spoon (aka. Desmond), in the example given, they knocked off Rays Engineering TE37's.
3. Rota's are pretty much the cheapest you can spend on fake wheels.

 

^^^ O those wheels are so sexy( The TE37's )

Those aren't TE37's. He bought stickers and put them on his Grids.

Sweet idea man. Ima do that.... Then no one will be able to tell the difference.

Thanks for the good ideas man. Maybe next i could slap stickers on some cheap rotas and sell them as spoons or volks.

 

I'll post my pictures up tomorrow afternoon. I've got Sports Bronze Rota Grids on a Satin Silver Coupe.

 

Actually the Volk bronze and Rota bronze are very distinctive. The spokes on the REAL TE37's are also tapered. The Rotas are just more of a straight spoke. I'm not sure on this one but I think the Volks have Rays Engineering Stamped inside the lip.

I hope that's sarcasm, because most anyone can tell the difference between a Volk/Desmond wheel and a Rota.

 

Aren't Drag wheels fakes too? I mean i know they are, but compared to Rota..

Yes, Drag's wheels are replicas.

 

like i said i knew they were knock-off's. i also heard the reason they are fakes is cuz the real ones aren't DOT legal. like they are magnesium or some ****, and they explode when you hit potholes.

yes please post pics on the silver em2 i really would like a visual of that. im good at photoshop im just lazy and dont wanna go to the desktop upstairs and do it.

also in that pic above what size tires is he running... and how many inches of drop?

thanks

I posted his username, you can ask him the details.

And, Drag's aren't replicas, because the real versions aren't DOT legal, they're replicas because they want to make a quick dollar by duplicating a popular style. And, if you're referring to the Forged Mag (magnesium) TE37's, that's an entirely different model line than standard forged aluminum TE37's.

 

600 a peice eh? if ya want real ones use the search button.......You'll find a set with tires for a little over a grand......

 

oh...

 

Those are my grids.

 

what tire sizes are u running?

 

205/16/45

The tire size I think is perfect.

 

you have 45" rims?!?!?!!?!?!!!!!!! o0o0o0o0oo0o

 

lol he meant 205/45/16. thats what im gonna go with. what would a good tire for autocross type driving be. good grip. and still be able to get a good amount of DD wear.

 

hey those wheels look nice..don't care if they are fake...knock offs..I would rock them..I don't know about the stickers though..

to me wheels are all the same and yea..some are light and have their advantage but in reality when do you use that advantage in daily day driving?... as long as it looks good, its all good..

 

the fake green rota are backordered... and Volk te37s in green are $450 a piece for me... and the Gramlights in 57s-pro with titan lip a $3000 a set!

 

Sorry about the misinformation. But yeah I have 16's with 45 series tires

 

Here you go, hope it helps
