I have had 3 sets of Rotas. Drove the poo out of them and NEVER had one single problem. They were PERFECT and were resold to another user.

I've also had MANY friends with Rotas--boosted, n/a, stock...never had any of them ever have a problem.

Btrthnezr3 thanks for the input

will 215/40/17 work for 17x7.5 +45 rota SVN wheels or try different tire spec ?

and any place offers good deals for rota other than machIII.net?

Machiii.net guarantees to be the lowest price on the net and will beat any other listed price you can find. Just an fyi.

I have Rota Circuit 10s as mentioned, 16x7 +45, on my GD. So far so good, no cracking whatsoever.

There are a lot of Rota haters, even on this forum. I understand the hate because they make knockoffs, but in my experience you can't complain about their quality. They're par for the course as far as cast wheels go.

Are Mach111's prices for true Rota's, or are they cheaper quality? The reason I ask is the main supplier has the C10 for 400+, while Mach111 has them for 120. This supplier has the best choices of offsets,sizes and finish that I've found but seem quite higher.

I believe JLB's site is per set.

As far as Machiii.net...I have ordered from them...and they are true Rota.
I would never pay 400 per wheel for a Rota---about 120 to 170 per wheel is the price I've found on the internet depending on size/style.

Yea, I wouldn't either...but I'm getting 16s from the cheapest place on the net. My wheels will be $120 each.

I've seen more expensive online stores sell rota 18s for around that much.

Well...

Rota has a variety of colors and styles...

I have not been able to find real deal rims in decent shape for under 500 bucks for an entire set.
