Need some help from anyone that's brought back a set of ROTA wheels from the philippines to Canada in specific.....is there a certain place(area) that you have to buy Rota wheels for really cheap in the philippines? Or can you get them for a really good price at any shop there? I have a friend going back for 2 weeks and I'm wondering where he should get them. Also, is there any taxes or brokage fees you have to pay when bringing them back? I know a set of 16s will not go over the weight limit allowed per passenger. Thanks!

 

I've only heard of military folk bringing back wheels.......

 

Im so sick of that 'shut the **** up' dude....

I would like to know about this also, help someone.

I'm currently here in the Philippines. Will be going back to the US in 2 days.
I'm buying from a store in the fort.
A rota circuit 8 15x6.5 /38 offset is $192.00 for a set of 4. You can probably get it cheaper from the factory.

Balikbayan box (box approved by airlines) will hold 2 rims. So you need a total of 2 boxes. Each passenger is allowed 2 baggage. So with me and my daughter, we get to bring 4 baggages. 2 bagage for the rims and 2 baggages for clothes.

BTW, limit per baggage is 70lbs. Each of the rims with its package box is approx 15lbs.

Hope this helps out.

Yeah you know. I am sick of looking at my silver rims.

 

my dad went to the philippines and got 2 sets of 15' C8's. He paid about roughly 200 each set. Directly from the Rota factory in Makati

no need to cry.

i have some rotas for sale. check it out in the sig...

 

Anyone know any sites based in the philippines that will ship rota wheels internationally?

The reason I ask is because I live in NZ so shpping from either countries should be about the same

Pour Pifteens in a Balikbayan box! Must be a different box then the 8 boxes I packed last week. We got 69lbs. per box, but no more than 2 Pifteens would fit guaranteed. Just my .02.
