Default Would these rotas look good?

I was thinking of getting these: Rota Drift Series, D1 Drift , 5x114 et30 18x9 Black polished lip; they basically look like the black with silver lip work meisters. Do you know if it will look good or look like *** on my z? Obviously im asking cuz I dont know anything about wheels spec/offsets and stuff like that. If you could tell me a website or a link on this forum that would inform me so I could learn about wheels and spec, that would be much appreciated, thanks for the answers.

This is an excellent sourse for wheel information. Instead of taking one members opinion for "This will look good" or "This will look terrible," read, learn and make an informed decision.

No, don't get them. Do some research and look into some good wheels instead.

yea ive done searches on here, but I cant find a thread that talks about offsets and all that other stuff that would inform me. I dont know anything about wheels/tires, so im basically buying new wheels based on you guys on this forum.

google "wheel offset calculator"
Then just mess with it and look at pictures of other peoples cars. Ask for their specs if they aren't listed.
Its called research and if youre going to spend $1000-$3000 on wheels, I think its worth doing.
