Default new shoesss... Ro_Ja Formula 5's///Pics

Soo I finally got wheels after a year of deciding which ones to go with. I really wanted to get SF Challenges in diamond black, but i got a steal on these wheels and couldn't pass up the opportunity.

Specs are 19x8 fronts, 19x10 rear 2 peice forged, gunmetal with polished lip
wrapped in BF Goodrich T/A KDW's 245/35/19 and 275/35/19.

Overall im pretty happy with the set up, the front offset could have been a little more aggressive, but they're fine for now. I'll probably sell them in the summer and go with something else. If i could go back i'd get 285 for the rears... but anywayssss.... here you go



I just ordered the Vertex half kit, should be here in a month or so, and then do black headlight housings, smoked side markers, and turbonetics single turbo set up.

I took more pics, they'll be up tonight

Only the barrel is forged. The center is cast.

thanks for the comments guys...

the offsets are +25 front and +30 rear, not aggressive at all, but i think they flow well with the car. I might get spacers for the front, maybe a 15mm so it sits in the well a little better, and the rear will look better once a i get an alignment.

I got the set brand new from a forum member for $1250 w/o tires shipped since he needed to get rid of them ASAP... which i thought was an awesome price, i forget what these go for new. Red6 is an awesome guy if you're lookin for Ro_Ja wheels though, he was very helpful when i was thinkin about buying the RS25's and their pricing is good.

And yes, the barrel is forged, the center is cast... but there isn't much of a center, its a very simple wheel .

Anyways, some more pics, the car kinda got hidden under the shade so i'll take better ones.

Is you car lowered any? I am hoping you say no b/c I love the way it looks now and I really don't have any plans of lowering my car.
Any side pics, thanks for posting I am seriously considering these wheels and since we both have CS it's helps me get a good idea of exactly what they will look like on my car.

thanks!

nissan fanatic-- the car is lowered on hotchkis springs, which dont drop the car much at allll... its like 10mm front (less than half an inch) and 15mm rear (about .5 an inch)

i got the hotchkis tvs stage 1 with the adjustable sway bars. the springs are linear being one of the main reasons i got them, and the car handles really nice with a close to stock ride... the rears are a little softer than stock spring rates so the rear isn't as bounce happy... overall im very happy with deciding to do these springs; mild drop and awesome ride quality! Hotchkis is good stuff!
