Rota Wheels


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, 

 

Any Rota/Wheel gurus out there? 

 

Looking to change my wheel set up and these popped up kinda locally, can't seem to find any info on this spec. Thinking they might be reps? Or I could be completely wrong.

Nice looking wheels but rotas are copies anyway. Not very well made wheels to be honest

 

^ that. Rota just copy other people’s designs. I’ve been given S*** today for posting them in my wheel topic. 

 

They apparently are more prone to cracks and shattering than Japanese brands.

^ take all with a grain of salt though . i like the way they look and price point, but wouldn't get them myself, as prioritize strong light wheels myself. if you're just wanting the wheels for looks/stance then it's probably more than good enough.. they aint gonna fall apart or chip/crack just from normal driving and would indeed look pretty sweet on your ride provided they're the right offset and all.

I don't think they would be sold in the country if they hadn't met a certain spec so for street driving and the look I think they would be fine. However there is proof online of them hitting potholes at speed and blowing to bits so would not recommend spirited driving or track use. 

 

The only other thing is Work wheels and the likes are definitely more expensive however by supporting company's such as Rota who imitate their wheels wont be doing anything good for the long standing company's. 

 

Buyers choice though! my WRX came on Rota's and they were fine while I had it but have since upgraded to genuine Work wheels.

The grain structure will be no where near as precise as a reputable brand that tests their design. That's why expensive rims typically partially crack/bend at the point of impact where rip-offs often sheer complete spokes right off or worse.

Well things like gram lites are only gravity poured. Rays forged range is just Volk now. 

 

Though rota have likely got a lot better than they used to be I can’t remember any dead wheels in the last few years.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
