Thanks for the compliments guys. That Redfire Cobra is mine. Im running a 3/8th spacer in the rear. I'm gonna start a thread in the next couple weeks with some new Pics. I've been getting a good amount of PM's about people wanting to see some more shots. So stay tuned. :beer:





Dude, hurry and mount those already.Haha. I want to see what they look like in Gold. I'm thinking of getting another set in Gold as well. :rockon:

srt10ram- Those look sick :thumbsup:



Here is a teaser pic until I get some more.

Anyone have the 18x10" on front with coilovers... I have CCW 18x9.5" on front now but thinking of selling my car and throwing a set of these on there. The CCW are very close to the coilover on the front and I'm thinking with the extra width these might rub without a spacer.

I think some factory wheels are produced in china also.

That can happen to ANY Wheel!

Ive seen Work wheels, VOlks, HRE, Spoon, Mugen, Enkei, Advan al busted up/broken or cracked

China made... right?

$10,000 (yes, $10k) dyman wheels broken WITHOUT being in any crash or accident (hairline crack lead to this):

So I guess this geniuine wheels are also make in china using goat poo for their alloys?

ANY wheel can break, china made, taiwan, USA, Japan, Mexican whatever...

And if rota is good enough to take the abuse of this cars I bet they're good enough for any daily driver and ocacional track car

take a look at the last 4 pictures, they're professional time attack racing teams using rotas to the extreme and they haven't had any issues, so I doubt any average person would have any issues with daily driving and ocassional track use...

It's not like the XXR/Rota would disintegrate if a dog pee on them like some people state

+1

I am really digging the 10" wheel up front on the cars posted on here, however... I am curious if they'll clear a coil over.
