what rota's are u looking at?

Subzero's come in 48+ for 18's while the battles' come in 45+

look for an offset that is 45+ or higher

this pretty much sums it all up :

Where can I find Rota or SSR wheels for a decent price ?

others have had problems with them too, hope you're not another

97blacklude · 10-23-2002, 01:50 PM

PM user Sunkist actually............he has the best prices on rota's

SicilianoNYC · 10-23-2002, 02:48 PM

revolutions motorsports=$435 shipped with lugs
sunkist=$460 shipped (but if paypal its $481 shipped)

therefore revolutions ....i talked to the manager and he said all the probs in july and august were attributed to new people they hired who messed up by putting the wrong lugs and tire sizes with the wheels, they have been fired and everything is fine now

Like 97blacklude said, go with which ever you feel is a better deal. I pick up the wheels from the warehouse so I check which wheels I'm going to take and send out. I take pictures of the actual rims I send out for personal reference too in case someone tries to say that the rims were damaged from shipping or that I sent broken wheels.

I also hope that you konw that if you send money through paypal such as moving the $ from your bank to paypal and sending that paypal money to another person's paypal account is free. Or if you setup your account and verify with your bank account you can send money from your bank to my paypal without paying a fee. Its only when you use a credit card that there is a fee in processing.

I went with Revolutions (this was like April or May) and had zero problems. Cost me $840 shipped for 16" slipstreams, Kumho Ecstas, kyokugen's, and some really lame pink valve stem caps.

I actually was originally intending on going through Machiii, but I called for like 3 days & noone answered the phone - turns out it was broken or off the hook or something. Anyway, I gave up & went with Revolutions. No regrets, but I'm sure Machiii would have been just as good. Although now I kind of wish I'd waited for another few months until the full polish steel grey became available. The regular steel grey I have now is a little too dark for my tastes.

But I think you'd have to look pretty hard to find anyone who's overcharging for Rota's. The differences you're going to find are only a matter of a few dollars.

NYC,

support small shops anyways........get them from sunkist........it's a sure bet
