well a friend (a soon to be WRX owner) saw a deal at the iclub forums and there were some good deals on these rims. so anyone have them or know if they are any good. anyone know the weight of their rims?

well yes, prob be better in wheels/tires but not a lot of people go there...

weight depends on which model. My friend has Rota slipstreams on his civic, and they are very light. This company makes replicas of other rims, such as the Racing Hart CP035, which they name Subzero. J2KGTS6 has subzeroes on her car.

oh yeah, thats the car that i saw those rims on... so i guess i dont have any worries of them fitting on my car then..

well then i should ask about polished lips on silver cars. anyone have pictures of rims with polished lips on a silver celica?

well actually you might need spacers. I think the Rotas are made to Subaru specs, so the offset is liek +48mm, when we need +39 mm or something. Or try to find the +45 mm version and you MIGHT be OK without spacers. But i hear that spacers H&R are on backorder... I myself want to get Rota Subzeroes in White 17inch but no spacers available for now.

where can i get spacers? what will happen i dont have spacers? would this mean that my rims would be like moved about 1 cm to the middle of the car?
