New Rotas...anyone got um?

Rota D2s....come in +48 offset in 17x8, 17x8.5, 17x7....almost a perfect knock off of the SSR Profs. If I still had my lude I'd be buyin a set. At $170 a wheel its a killer price. Come in black,gold,gunmetal,silver all with the polished lip. Lets see some pics!!

For some reason, i think these wheels will look like **** on ludes. But, as a polished lip hater, i guess it makes sense.

What Rota really needs to make is a 17" version of the "Formula." Not sure what they ripped off, but it's a pretty wheel...BBS esque.

They also resembles the Work Meister S3.
I may consider a set for my 180SX, looks bad-ass with the deep dish.
Do they make lower offset +20 and do they come in 4 x 114.5?

^^^... looks like the end of airplane! where they draw the wheels onto the plane to land. lol. I like these wheels though. wonder how they would look in real life on a lude - i have mixed feelings about larger lips on hondas...

aw man, the BBS RE. Great wheel to rip off I guess b/c its so damn gorgeous.

18x8, $684 of forged goodness from Tirerack

Rota version is clearly not up to par with the BBS - you can see the difference in craftsmanship immediately - but not many kids can afford $700/wheel I guess.
