Default interested in Rota Grids in new color? HELP ME

whats up guys. I kno for alot of you, Rotas arent your cup of tea

so this is just for the guys who are impartial towards Rotas, and just want good looking wheels for a decent price

the color that wheeldude offers right now for the Grids is full hyper blk.

its nice, but what I want is Hyper blk with a Polished lip. the polished look, and the color hyper blk are pretty similar yes, but there is still a difference. I want a polished lip. it looks better when the wheels are in motion

wheeldude only needs a total of about 2-3 people who are interested to special order this colorway. here are the wheels:





thanks guys

Just so you know, in the real world hyperblack doesn't really resemble a polished finish at all. you also may have better luck getting a few people on board if you post in one of wheeldude's threads, rather than get buried here in this forum.

ok sorry but ive changed my mine. I want the Royal Steel Grey color.

Actually if anybody is interested in EITHER color let me know!

the color that I want is Royal Steel Grey. Steel grey is a PERFECT color match with silverstone and it has a polished lip which is what im looking for.


heres what steel grey looks like on the Rota P45 wheels:





this is what the color looks like on my car:





however, I want this colorway on the Rota Grids. if anybody is interested in getting this, PLEASE let me know! I really want these wheels in this color. Thanks!

haha sorry

heres a summary:

i want the Rota Grids, but wheeldude does not offer the colors (hyper black with polished lip OR Royal Steel Grey) that I want.

He would need at least 2 people interested in these colors in order for him to special order them (when he special orders a new color, he has to make a order for several sets so he wants to make sure that he can sell off at least 2-3 of them)

why don't you get the Axis Hiros in the same color/similar style, and they look like they are in stock from one of the vendors here...

If you are requesting a group buy from Wheeldude for your specific wheel color.... please have him start his own thread in the Vendor Group Buy section...

TOU 18 states:

18.) GROUP BUYS
Members are to post what they would like a Group Buy on, and wait for a sponsoring vendor to reply and set it up from there. If a vendor is willing to make a profit from this site, they should be willing to step up and become a sponsor and give back to the site that is helping them make the profit. Any post made containing information on a Group Buy being handled by a company who is not a paying advertiser of this site will be locked or deleted. Any company attempting to set up or promote a Group Buy without being a sponsoring vendor is subject to banishment.

sorry about that, i completely understand

And I'm not really requesting a group buy exactly. I'm only looking for one other person who is interested in these colors. "Members are to post what they want...." but currently, there are no "members". Only me, which is why I made this thread

but this can be locked though, I understand. I've been posting in his threads instead. thanks!
