Thumbs up New wheel design - 20" Grid








Would this be something that you guys would be interested in, in 20x8.5/20x9.5 staggered applications?

most likely it would not, just a slightly more concave face in the rear

I'd like them better as 19s. 20s are too big.

Speaking of that, let us know when the P45s come in 19.

This is pretty much what this thread is for

to gauge interest

What colors would you like to see?

What offset would you guys like to see?

We have the 20x8.5 available all ready, we're just seeing if there is enough interest to make the 20x9.5's

you need to make some 17 and 19 inch applications

also, does Rota do 'forge' monoblocks?

They are made in the 6x139.7 bolt pattern, which is for nissan/infiniti and toyota full size trucks

If they are made in Z fitment they will be the correct bolt pattern and will have a smaller opening at the hub, it will look a lot cleaner

I'll ask about the 19's

17's most likely will not happen for these.

No, those are pictures of the sample, the production ones will not have that written on them

Offsets can be whatever

Weight is TBD

Pricing will be around $1350 a set

I told myself to get TE37s as my next rims used for track with Hoosiers and use my P45Rs (which I bought from you, subydude) with NT01s. My goal for next year is to join/compete with the other Time attack Zs (M-Workz, Relentless) in time attacks/Super lap battles. I use S1 Meisters for street which some guys here in this forum have seen at the meets.

However, these look good and Rotas work fine at the track. I am aware they can have the tendency to crack when hit really hard (especially at certain tracks such as Streets of Willow), but I will just have to avoid going to those tracks and go to nicer cleaner tracks (laguna seca, buttonwillow, infineon)

I MAY consider a set if:
Bronze or Blue
18x10.5" +15 or lower offset.

What do you think?

I have money for TE37s but dont have time to wait for Bronze or blue ones in the specs that I want. Most vendors sell 19" TE37s
