Default Preview of the NEW ***Rota SVN***


The new Rota SVN staggered setup for the Z/G (18x9 +20 / 18x10 +20) is about to go in to production. Rota recently sent us some samples of the 18x9 wheel while they were finishing up the 18x10 mold. To give everyone a preview of whats to come we decided to mount the 18x9 +30 wheel on our Z

The setup is 18x9 +30 all around using spacers to bring the front to 18x9 +25 and rear to 18x9 +15. The actual SVN wheels for the Z/G will sit 5mm further out in front and 8mm further out in the rear compared to our current setup on the car. The tires on this setup are 265/35/18 front and 295/35/18 rear Toyo T1R's. We will put these same tires on the 18x9 / 10 staggered SVN's when they arrive.





For more info on these wheels and pre-order/custom color ordering please check out the following thread

Wow, I'm impressed....it actually looks quite good. But I'll keep my Works XD9 anyway

I always wonder why people buy Rota when they can get Enkei, aren't they price is similar? Enkei wheels are use on various races and time attacks, so their wheel must be good.

The team that just won the last time attack event was running Rota wheels So their wheel must be REALLY good right?

"We have smashed burms, jumped the car and done all things brutal we can and we have never hurt a Rota rim ever.

For sure the best wheel for the $ and strong as hell.

Rota Torque, same exact Torque that the 350Z uses


Rota P45R, same exact P45R that the 350Z uses

I have a set of Rotas on my daily driver (Civic Type R) and they work great!
I think they have a very nice price / quality ratio.
I am thinking about getting a set of SVN for winter too.

The 19" P45R's are finishing fabrication right now and will be ready for production at the end of this month/early next month. I will post all updates for the P45R in the 19" Rota wheel thread. Expect a big update in a couple weeks as I am going to the Philippines to visit Rota and will have lots of pictures of our new wheels coming out
