nah just playing finally got pics up of my car w/ the rota slips and new tires. check them out at http://www.imagestation.com/al...96289 .
pics are at my friends house and it had just rained, but hey they turned out ok.

 

I think it would look better without the Rota Center caps

 

not to bash you or anything....

but I don't get putting cheaper wheels on your car than what originally came on the car. I understand an EG or an EF with Rotas, since they came with 13inch steelies....but whats wrong with the stockies???

Not starting an anti-Rota thread.,..but it seems sense to upgrade and not downgrade IMO...

Also, I think you should paint the grill back to black...looks cleaner IMO.

Dope R though

 

i wouldnt have bought the rotas cept when i bought the car it had 17in white montegi's on it. also it had the color match grill when i bought it too. wish the car woulda just been stock. thanks for the

 

Emerika: Are they really a downgrade though? Lighter, wider and if you get em in black you never have to clean em

I picked up my rotas because they are light and I didn't like the looks of the stock wheels. Sorry to be part of the thread in a negative way...I just hate when people say Rotas are a downgrade.

 

part of the rota club, and proud of it. lol

 

much love for rota's looks good I'm from MD too. Were u at O.C. last weekend

 

no, i was in oc 2 weeks ago though

 

looks like you bought your car like mine...with chipping red painted calipers

-Tommy who is too lazy to remove the chipped up red paint and thought it would eventually chip all off...silly me, the paint still hasn't chipped all off after 3 years of my ownership

 

lol yea i was gonna paint them black, but i just dont feel like it

I dont know why anyone would consider saving 3-3.5 lbs off rotational mass a downgrade.

oh. thats right. I guess its because all hype R owners are ricers.

I'm not ripping on Rotas or anything...but a budy of mine sticks out.

He puts a JDM front end on his car, spends 1200 bucks for a water injection system for his JRSC to gain 7 lousy hp(not worth 1200 bucks IMO), spend 2 g's on the paint, and then buys a fake CF lip that's already cracked and some ROtas. I just feel like if you're putting that much money into a nice car, then put it where it counts.

Not doggin on Rotas, cause I'd probably get a pair if I didn't have wheels....but they're WAY better then 17inch Motegei's

 

I need some rotas! Light, cheap, and they look good. But i just want a set so that i can throw some competition tires on for auto x'n.

 

I don't think Rotas are a "downgrade" for R owners. As mentioned they are lighter than stock and don't kill your wallet...

 

Car looks nice man, keep up the good work

 

thanks

 

nice clean r man. very nice car.
