As for TPMS, I'm told they won't fit straight away on the PIAA's due to the lip design. Not sure if our existing customers just did away with the sensors altogether, or if their tire shops figured out a way to make them fit. But, we do have an adapter that will be available in about 2 weeks that will allow for them to be fitted. I have not seen it first hand yet, but one of our distributors told us about it yesterday, so we put the order in for a few sets to have on hand.

I will definately want some of those nifty adapters when you get them, Please let me know.

What is the bore size of the Super Rozzas? I tried to look it up but couldn't find anything.

I don't have the info handy, but most likely the bore on the wheel is 73.1mm

* * Thread Revival * *

I have a set of brand new Super Rozzas waiting to be installed when the weather warms up and they sent me a set of hub-centric rings with the wheels. I have never had to install a set of wheels with hub rings before, so I have a question (and this might be a silly, silly question): Does it matter whether I press the ring into the wheel then put the wheel on the hub, or should I fit the ring onto the hub and then put the wheel onto the hub+ring? I keep going over it in my head and it seems that the wheel will center itself with the hub when the lug nuts are tightened regardless of the order of assembly, but it seems like it will be easier to press the rings into the wheels first. Can anyone confirm/deny/advise otherwise? Thanks!

When I installed my Super Rozza's, I pressed the hubcentric rings into the wheel and then put the wheel on the hub. I'm sure it could work the other way, but this is the way I did it. Congrats on the wheels. I am sure you will love the look once they are installed on your ride.

Yeah dude these wheels are rad. Rear lips are ridiculous. They are currently sitting on my back porch soaking in this lovely 35 degree weather in PA. I am a little disappointed at the wheel weights, but I knew what I was getting before I bought them. They're actually about the same weight with Toyo T1-R as the 2006 stock 18" wheel/tire combo, so hopefully I won't notice too much difference in performance. I also got a good deal on them so it was hard to pass them up. I got silver and I hope they look awesome on my black Z. I'll post pics in a few weeks when they get mounted

Also thanks for the advice on the hub rings! One more question, did you press them all the way in, or just enough to get them a little snug?

In my case, I actually couldn't pop the rings in manually all the way - so I used a rubber mallet to get them in alll the way. I'm sure that even if you put them in enough to get them snug and the tightening of the lugs woudld do the rest.

I have the Piaa Super Rozza wheels. but when i got my car washed at the dealer, they messed up my wheels. Left some sort of stain all over my wheels. They got rid of a lot of it but still has some film over it.

THey best way to describe what the film looks like is, basically when you open up an oyster shell, in the inside it has that rainbow effect. Now picture that rainbow all over my wheels.

Can someone help me as to how i can get rid of that film??

THanks,

Check out Upgrade Motoring, they were offering a pretty good deal on the silver ones in certain sizes last month.
