nothing is wrong with Rota's for what they are, they get the job done and still look good. i know when i get some more money i will buy either the grid's or tourque, love the concave but also like the spokes.

Its not like I make a habit of curbing my wheels a lot. I can parallel park and all, its just living in the city and having to do it a higher % of the time your gonna bump at some point. I just know I would freak out.

I looked at the Rotas and I really like them. and they arent crazy expensive either.

I actually like several of the Rota line.

That's why I'm glad I put on the AXIS shines. I curbed 3 already and if I'd have paid $4k for wheels you'd be reading about the 1st Mid-A suicide very shortly. BTW, E10 I saw a split front lip design for the front bumper. Think this would work on a 350Z?

They are knock off Volk TE-37's P45F is non concave front wheel..P45R is a concave rear wheel.. most ppl run P45R on all 4 since concave looks better.. Offsets could be different the wheel sizes they come in could be diff. and bigger lip... smaller spokes all make the wheels diff

Yea I think Rotas will be my Hannakuh gift to myself. I'm looking at the DPTs in cosmic blue. I think my UY would look very sexy sitting on them.

Long time ago I saw this one type of wheel that sold rings in different colors so you could change your lip color [and I believe center cap color too]. Anyone know if they make a clear ring to protect a wheel's lip from curbage? Or do I need to call the patent office?
