Title: Rare Rims (Rota importer)
Post by: zevans on May 22, 2005, 12:28:00 PM
Spotted them at Japfest, and had a chat to the guy... didn\'t sound like he\'d been going that long. He started the company to import Rota rims because no-one (including me) seems to have heard of them over here.

Rota rims are LIGHT and the spokes are designed to leave plenty of room for calipers, and more importantly, they\'re all around the 500 quid mark for a set!

I have no affiliation other than shock at finding someone who sells rims which will actually benefit the car in ways other than bling...

More sizes coming soon, apparently (luckily for me)

Some nice wheels and keen prices just a shame they\'re practically no use for FD\'s.  Widest are 7.5" which limits the rubber you can wrap round them too much to be comfortable on an FD.

Know what you mean, Iant, like I say that list is not the whole story (I\'m STARTING from 8JJ remember!)
