I understand there is a very limited amount of these wheels that will fit Subaru's but we will definately be increasing our stock over the next few months with MANY more fitments particularly for Subarus so please don't feel that we have left you out!

We intend to be able to cater to almost all aspects of the NZ enthusiast market and will do our absolute best to provide you with the largest range at the best prices. Rota have been a hot topic for many enthusiasts with a range of wheels from the Rota Alecia in 15x"8 all the way up to my all time favourite, the 18x12 GTR-D!!

We have started a Facebook group http://www.facebook.com/rotawheelsnz and would love for you all to join, if you signup via the 'Email signup' icon we will be offering all sorts of deals, competitions and give-aways. You will also be the first to know of all the brand new wheels that Rota are releasing!

We will ofcourse be running specials for all you forum members too! So please, we would love to have your input and hope to be able to provide you with some Rota wheels for your pride and joy!

Kind regards,

James

Sad but true

Pics of the wheels James

[GregNZ101]

If i wanted to order some wheels say boost 17", 8", 48, and get them with the next shipment. Would that be possible?

[Scoobydoo]

I've seen some sexy pics of cars from overseas with Rota wheels... hella flush anyone?

[cornf3]

they will fit my subee maybe looking at a set of fighter 10 18x9 et 35 if the price is right

[GorGasmSpecB]

Lol wat I got excited until I saw all 5x114.3. FAIL.

Get in some DPN:

Gravel:

And someone has to make 5x100 Grids fit

[funkytown]

Hm those grids would fit my 04 outback. Photo shop anyone?

This was as close as I could manage, only on MS Paint

[RotaWheelsNZ]

I apologize for the limited amount of wheels that will fit your cars in this list but as you can imagine for our VERY first shipment, it would be near impossible to be able to cater to every make and model of NZ enthusiasts cars.

For this very reason, I have approached your forum to gauge interest in certain models and ask YOU all your desired widths and fitments to ensure we can cater to as many of your members as possible.

I apologize for the lack of pictures but was waiting for the actual wheels to arrive to take photos of the exact items you will get if you purchase from us, but if you would like to see what these wheels could look like on your cars, please type 'subaru rota grid' in google images.

Regarding some of the models mentioned above, yes, our next shipment is to contain both the Rota Boost and the Rota DPT (please note the Rota fighter and DPT are the same model), many of you may be interested in the Rota T2R aswel. Could you please register your interest with your desired widths and offsets and I will do my absolute best to improve our service to your forum

Kind regards,

James

I like the GT-3 & Optimus but i dont think you can get them in 13x5.5 0r 13x6 with a 4x120pcd

so i may have to stick with mini/superlites & have them drilled to suit

[DRFVDR]

What you need the 13's for a leone ?

[GregNZ101]

What sort of price are we talking here for say some 17" wheels

nothing fits your car better than the standard wheels.

Hahaha na not quite an eb civic , & have the 4x120 stud & really hard to find alloys for,

could always convert it to 4x100 with later running gear but then i'd have to go & put that b16a in it ;D.

but that's another project & offtopic

[RotaWheelsNZ]

What are some ideal fitments for your foresters, imprezas, legacy's etc.?

[GorGasmSpecB]

2003+ legacy would suit 18x8-8.5, 42-48 offset.

I could be interested in some DPT or Gravels

Hi funkytown, regarding your comment, is this due to the offset being too low and would stick out too much? What would you consider to be the most common fitment for subarus? I will be bringing in a range but would be good to get some of this information. Cheers!

[funkytown]

Its because most here role in 5*100. Also anything over 8" wide is mostly to wide.

17*7, 17*7.5 17*8, the same width in 18's. Mostly +50 to +40 depending on width. Some might want 19s... Or any of the above size in 8.5 wide they are game or own a later model sti or legacy.

Only the wrx sti from v9 or my04 I think it is runs 5*114.3

**the above comments are for easy fitment,little to no guard rolling applications. Crazy mofo's will be more game for 8.5+ wide or 19" diam....or ET's of +35 or less

[RotaWheelsNZ]

Thank you for this information Funkytown, it's really appreciated!

The order we are currently compiling consists of quite a few different sets of wheels to suit Subarus, said models are:

Rota P1 18x8 +48

Rota Boost 17x.7.5 +48

Rota DPT 17x8 and 18x8

May possibly be more styles too, these are 5x100 stud pattern

Please let me know what you think, any colours of preference and if there are any other styles that take your interest.

Cheers guys!

Here you go - ordinary picture, but you get the idea;

Oh, and it's lower now after rolling and pulling all the guards.

[funkytown]

what size and offset are those.. crickey!

[Scoobydoo]

That's some stance

Lots of Rota Wheels pics in this thread... it started back in 2003 so lots of images are gone. So go to the last page and work your way back
