the offsets sound great--and make the most business sense to fit the neds of the biggest audience.
Any chance of producing these in a RMC finish? I know I can always get them finished aftermarket, but would be nice to just buy them that way. I wouldn't mind silver or glossy black either, but I don't care for the hyper black or gold on a black Z.

it'll cost an extra 100-200 bucks, but then everyone gets what they want

I hope you know that +15 isn't even the extremely aggressive hella flush you may think it is. If Rota is gonna make Z fitment wheels, why do you want to stop them?
He has already said what they are producing (the more conservative offsets), I was just trying to let those who wanted a more agressive offset know that they could still utilize these wheels.
most people want more aggressive offsets, not just for the stance, but for the lips and concavity as well. I was just letting them know that in this case, the offset affects none of these.

Here's a Subaru running 18x9 +30 G-Force's in Hyper Black, as you can see the finish on the wheel is pretty shiny

Once the wheels are in the US we will have tons of pictures of them installed on our Z. I will have actual wheel pictures in a couple weeks when the wheels finish production and a thread will be up for pre-orders.-Dan

The black and white 06 STi's are both running 18x9 +30 Boost's. The owner of the black STi painted the wheels Gold, this is not the same Gold that we have coming from Rota.

The 18x10 wheel was just made a couple days ago at Rota, no pictures on a Z yet haha. We will have plenty of pictures on our shop Z once the wheels are in the US.
First look at the Rota Boost 18x10 +20 Hyper Black Only available from Wheeldude.com
