anyone got pics of a 4th gen lude with spoon sw388's or their rota fakes?

Jose should put up some pics of his car. He has the rota's.

Does anybody know, since the Spoons are extremely lightweight, if they can handle the abuse of being driven on bumpy roads? Or should they be kept for us on tracks or strips??

I don't the Spoon ever made them in out bolt pattern did they?

Someone back this up: a friend of mine said the Rotas bend easily....

Yeah, I thought that the Spoons were a magnesium alloy, which is pretty soft. I'd love to have them, but I won't go w/ them if they bend on bad streets, b/c I'll be putting them on for daily driving.

Spoon doesn't make a wheel in our bolt pattern. If you were to convert to a 5 lug (off a 5th gen lude) they may fit. (I belibe the 5th gen lude is the same lug pattern as the Type-R). As for them bending easily... They are a Forged wheel, super super light and super strong! Rota also makes a solid wheel, unless you plan on running a 205/40 profile tire and then driving your car into a curb, I highly doubt you'll bend it. Just my 2 cents...

You're arent gonna bend either wheel as long as you dont run into ****.

Im not sure if spoon makes them in our bolt pattern, but I know that rota makes the slipstrams in our pattern...so, how we doing on them pics?

Vteg · 06-02-2002, 07:44 PM

Are you talking about the REAL Spoon rims, or the Rota slipstreams?

The REAL Spoon ones never came out in our pattern. I believe they only come in 5x114.3 and and 4x100. The Rota Slipstreams are available in 4x114.3.

Rota does make the slipstreams in our bolt pattern, Im sure of that, theres a guy on this board that has them, but doesnt have pics yet, Im not sure bout the real spoons though

Slipstreams ARE made in our bolt pattern. PreludeNYC has them and has posted pictures before...or at least I think it was him.
