Rota Wheels are coming!!!

[LAtitudeNZ]

Hey mate, what would you suggest for a toyota soarer?

i was thinking of a set of 18x10 +15 Grids, but unsure if they will fit with minimal guard work.

There is a thread here with them on with just the rolled guards and stretched tyres.

Also, would you be able to get them in Gunmetal?

Hey mate, sorry at present the closest we have to the Gunmetallic would be our Matte Bronze.

In 18x10 +15 we have the following colours available:

Absolute green

Flat Black

Yamaha Black (gloss black)

Hyper Black

White

Matte Bronze

Cosmic Blue

If you want a very aggressive fitment the 10's would be good but bear in mind in that thread he is running 225/40 tyres up front. I wouldn't recommend running a tyre that stretched, we often do 235/40's on 10's but this tyre size is the minimum required by LVV for a 9.5" rim.

So to answer your question I would recommend going with the 18x9.5 +18 for a very staunch but slightly more manageable fitment which will also be legal with a 235/40 tyre up front and whatever you wish to run on the rear, maybe a 235 or 245/40.

I would roll the guards (the inner lip) to ensure this doesn't cut into your tyre when going in drive-ways etc. The 9.5's are available in the following colours:

Absolute Green/Candy Green Lip

White

Matte Bronze

Absolute Green

Absolute Pink

Cosmic blue

Tint Graphite

Flat Black

Let me know what you think and we can go from there

[GorGasmSpecB]

hey james,

im interested in some Rota Torques but want them in 18x8 are you able to get a set in as the 18x9's dont fit under the guards on my legacy!!

[LAtitudeNZ]

Hey mate. is there anywhere in palmy that could do test fits etc with your wheels?

I dont really want to jump the gun and purchase a set without checking fitment and seeing how it sits etc.

Cheers.

Hey mate, we can get these in. Wouldn't be for another 8-10 weeks though as all of our wheels are made to order

Have 17x8's in the DPT's? Or have 18x8.5 +44's in the Gforces and Grids Huge range of colours!

Hey mate, we don't have any stockists down those ways at present sorry. Which wheels were you interested in and what car were they to fit? I can provide you with a multitude of pics and some assistance with my offset imprinted brain

[LAtitudeNZ]

For a toyota soarer.

Was tossing up what offset to go, as this will be my DD and dont want anything to detrimental to ride quality/outrageous fitment that cant take a bump or two. I am planning on Rolling my guards. not pulling however.

I was thinking of 18x10 +15 but as you said, tyre stretch would be asking too much so thats out of the question.

So its either 18x9.5 +18 as you suggested.

Or some 18x9.5 +30 for more driveability.

Its for this car. Any colour suggestions? i was thinking gunmetal.

Car is aibt lighter then the photo, seems somewhat richer in colour i guess....

[RotaWheelsNZ]

The 18x9.5 +18 will be a good fitment for your Soarer. Pair them up with some 235/40's or 245/40's (both legal) and possibly a mild guard roll (just the inner lip) and you'll be away laughing

I think it would be good for the car to have a slightly aggressive look, a flat black or matte bronze would suit that colourscheme to a tee. (Just my personal opinion but completely up to you)

Just the other day we sold a set of 18x12 +17 ALL ROUND to a Soarer, he fitted them up with 275's and flared the guards but surprisingly they work! Wouldn't recommend it if you want to keep your guards in any decent condition though!

[LAtitudeNZ]

Were those the gtr-d's on the soarer that you posted on facebook? If so, i saw them. Wow is all i can say. Id love to do it but far too impractical for a daily driver.

I might have a look around for pictures of +18 fitment. See how things look etc.

[RotaWheelsNZ]

Haha yeh the dude is crazy! But good on him. Quick search came up with this in the US:

I think with a 235/40 all round and a slight guard roll (again, just the inner lip) would be a practical, legal and 'flush' ride

Perfect for a daily!

[LAtitudeNZ]

Hey mate. Im up in auckland at the moment. Is there any chance at popping around to look at colours at all? Still quite undecided on colour choice.

[RotaWheelsNZ]

Hey mate, were in Oz at the moment with our Ozzy distributor. Will be back on Wedneaday AM if you're still up then?

Haha it's not all fun and games but you guys should all benefit from a few things we have decided on over here

Many new things on their way for Subaru's and some crazy concepts have been thrown around..

Re the Torques, glad you like them we're doing our best to cater to your market asap.

[ODB]

Keep doing copies of classic jap mags and we will be happy!

Advan RC next???

[RotaWheelsNZ]

18x9.5 +38 Rota MXR's, due to land any day now

Should have been last week but the Port strikes have everything on the fritz!

[Dave88]

Any way those MXR's would fit a V7 Sti?

[funkytown]

lol they are what size they are, its up to your wallet and $$$ to make them fit bro.

with enough camber, and tyre choice will determine if they fit

[johnny5]

Yea give it a nudge i bet they will fit

[RotaWheelsNZ]

Yep will definately fit, Will upload some pics tomorrow of some fitted up in the states and 1 on a wagon

Here. We have both 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 to suit either fitment style
