are you sure? i'm yet to see them in 5 lug unless they finally made one.. they do look nice - not as strong as slipsteams.

if they do have 5x114.3, i'd message back and find out for sure.. i have never seen them on type r, cause i thought they didn't make it... just make sure they sell you the right bolt pattern.

circuit 8 is NOT available in anything other than 4 lug patterns.

slipstream and most other rotas are available in 5 lug for ITR.

No, the color is called gunmetal, but it's very dark, almost as dark as black. They also have black as an option too

I like my slips in gunmetal. I do have pics of them. if you are interested in seeing them IM me.
I don't see the quality or lack of problems with these. Mine are holding up great.

What are the weights of Slipstreams and C8s in 15s? They seem to be the best bang for the buck. Have not heard anything bad about them..

somewhere around 12 pounds, lie 11.8 to 12.4 dependig on scale, wheel, lugpattern and wheel model.

these are the best deal for wheels that are not ****. no joke. I'll stand by either of my two sets of Rotas all day long on the track or autocross or daily driving on AO32R!
