ROTA wheels- decision time
Ok, If you haven't read this thread, do it now:
https://www.rx7club.com/1st-generation-specific-1979-1985-18/new-wheels-available-first-gen-514551/ ROTA needs 5 orders of ONE kind of wheel to start making our fitment. In the poll, I included what people found most popular from the last thread. Don't base your vote on looks alone, take in consideration size, weight, price, and color. (I saw somewhere the D-2's go for about $700 while you can get the GT-3's for $450.) I'm pretty sure they will make them in different offsets, but not 100%. I'm not in contact with the company, so don't ask me any questions, I'm just making this poll. rotrmotr started the other thread, so ask him. For the record, I want GT-3's. For the sizes and offsets, and more choices- http://www.rotawheels.com/wheels.php Burnout, D2 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...79/burnout.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...ocket79/d2.jpg Flight, GT-3 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...t79/flight.jpg https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...hmentid=159384 J.SPL, P45F http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...ket79/jspl.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...ket79/p45f.jpg Slipstream, Track-R: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...slipstream.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...t79/trackr.jpg Oh yeah, don't say, "those wheels are teh suck" or talk about different kinds of wheels. ROTA only!! Remember! some only come in 17 or 18 inch sizes, and most people don't want heavy bling wheels on their car. choose wisely! *prays for gt-3 to win* ~b.k EDIT: you can vote more than once if you're okay with more than one wheel. |
The Flight wheel looks awesome! Anyone know where I can get a price on those?
|
thats the whole point of this thread to buy the rims. there is no price unless 5 pppl agree to purchase the same set

Hi everyone!
First- Thanks rbf41182gt for posting this poll :cool: I spoke with Rota & I have more good news- prices on the above wheels & the D2 wheel will be available in a 16x7 inch next month!!! 1- Burnout - 15x6.5 - $400 a set 2- D2 - 16x7 - $550 a set 3- Flight - 15x6.5 - $400 a set 4- GT3 - 15x7 - $450 a set 5- JSPL - 15x6.5 - $450 a set 6- Slipstream - 15x7 - $450 a set 7- Track R - 15x7 - $450 a set Did not get a price on the P45F because it only comes in 18x8. The above prices is for a minimum 5 sets, after 5 the price drops- also we can choose the color of the wheel at no extra cost! I am torn between the GT3, Track R & Slipstream- I will make a decision soon! |
I'd really like to be able to get GT3 in correct offsets for FB. 4x114.3 or 4x110, doesn't really matter.
|
I voted for Slipstream, but I could go with the Flight wheels if needed. Cash in hand and ready to order!
|
I'm beginning to start liking the slipstreams too, they got that old school look. However, they look hideous with all 10 (!) holes drilled in them. I might even consider the D-2's if they made them in 15x7, but 16 is pushing it.
|
what about offset? will they make it work? thats a huge factor
|
Be sure to let us know when you need the money, and what form of payment you'll take...

rotrmotr,
Can you ask them if they make a center cap for their wheels next time you talk to ROTA? I think a cap would give a nice finished look. Thanks for doing all of the leg-work in getting this going. If anyone can chime in on the right offset for a 7in. wheel, I'd like to know how much clearance we can give on the inside of the wheel. I've been playing around with different offset values here: http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp but I'm not sure how much room is behind the stock wheel to begin with. |
They do make centercaps for almost all of their wheels except for many racing application only(s)
|
I think I'm defenitely feeling the GT-3s. I wonder how much could we get them down to if we got something like 10 orders?
|
the j-spl s are awesome are would totally buy them
|
SA wheels
The stock alloy "waffle" wheels are marked 5.5 JJ 13 25
Meaning five and a half inch wide thirteen inch diameter safety rim with 25 mm offset. One post to this thread says 18 mm offset is the plan. Is that the best to allow the widest tire wheel combo? I would prefer black or gunmetel in either a mesh, Track R, or the GT-3. I want to be able to run 225/50x15 tires all around. Probably Avon Tech M 550 AS. |
those wheels are teh suck
|
Slipstream or J.SPL, not GT3
|
if we do 5 of one and 5 of another do we get a price drop? ;)
|
i like the track-r or gt-3, you could count me in for either if i could get a set that cheap or cheaper...but....not in 16x7..........15x7 at the biggest i think....sounds like a great deal though....can we get them in 15x7 and have it even cheaper??
|
