Default Concept Rims

at the 2008 detroit auto show, the mitsubishi concept RA was unveiled with these 21" lovelies. Any ideas on how you'd even try to get your hands on a set of rims like these?






these wheels would be so bad ***, but i'm guessing they are one-off production...not to mention its a single lug hub. The wheel bearing would have to be custom to make it fit, but for a wheel that pretty, it may be worth it.

Dont worry Rota will make a cheap knock off soon enough. Granted it will weigh like 40 lbs and be made of steel but...

another ignorant user that should be banned!

my rotas weigh ~8 pounds lighter per wheel than most volks (21vs 29 lbs like the gtc, gtg etc). guess who goes down the road faster.... Obviously the volk ower bc they are out 3000$ more.

now back on topic

I've owned Volk Racing, Work, and Rota wheels. There is nothing wrong with Rota wheels and I've been extremely happy with the quality, performance, and price. Hell just look at the Rota P45R thread in the members gallery, there are hundreds of happy owners. It seems the only people with bad things to say are the Volk nut swingers that have never owned a set of Rotas

Here is a link to One Lug Wheels. They make wheels and adapters to utilize a single lug nut. http://www.onelugwheels.com/

Also, Toora has been making single lug wheels for years. http://www.toora.com/wheels.htm
