does anyone have these, post pics if possible. Any comments on how they look.

 

I just ordered a set for my friend and recieved them today...look EXACTLY like spoons.

 

yep! rota slipstreams....maaaad dope! 12lbs each..supre nice cheap too

 

i mean like on C8's, is it the same flat black as the spoon rims?

 

yes the rims are FLAT black just like spoon

 

With flash....


W/out flash.... my digicamera sucks


Infamous slipstreams


Slipstreams on the car


Cool pict ..... just missing a set from that pict (which is on my car)

 

Oh yeah... forgot the picts of C8s on a car

 

Newman those C8's are flat balck right? If they are i think i like those over the gunmetal, can someone post the gunmetal to compare. thx.

 

hey newman are u selling those rota slipstream??? if so how much for a set in flat black??? lemme know

 

Yup... flat black. I've seen gunmetal C8s (on a Silver LS in town) and up close, it honestly looks like a very dark grey with a slight hint of navy-blue color. Very similar to flat black, but a lil different looking when you drive by the car.... a bit shinier too IMO. I like the clean, simple look of flat black.

Sorry, not selling any of my sets. You can get a set for $370.

 

Ok. I am going to post my opinion of black wheels. They ugly as hell. Why do you guys like these things so much. From a distance it either looks like you got your hub caps stolen or your on an oversized spair. That is just my opinion. Take it or leave it.

You are entitled to your opinion riceyimport. I love my black wheels, they are low maintenance and when I blow by your at night, it looks like my car is hovering for the split second you see me passing. Black wheels rule!!!

 

why in the hell would u want some shiny wheels on ur car that u have to clean everyday? its just a pain... and everyone and their mothers has chromeor what not... i guess u want to be like everyone else... huh?

 

hey could u tell the diff between the Gunmetal and the flat black rotas? Anyone have any pics of gunmetal ones???

 

GSR, to me the gunmetal rotas are to shiny. Im leaning towards flat black, unless i change my mind.

 

I like!!!

 

could some on post a pic of a Gunmetal rota rims and a pic of a flatb lack rims. Wanna the diff. in color.

 

There needs to be something to fill the holes in the wheel wells. That's why lowered cars with big rims look better: Because the space is filled tightly.

Black rims just don't fill that space. They leave a huge visual "void" that defeats the whole "look" appeal of larger rims.

My observation/opinion.
