I'm going nuts trying to figure out what wheels I want for my car. I'm looking for 17x7 +45 or 17x7.5 +48 (just what Rishie says to use), they can weigh no more than 17lbs. ea. I don't want to drop more than a grand on wheels w/o tires. I've already looked at several different models of Rotas, and searched the crap out of www.wheelspecs.com and www.wheelweights.net. Please, if any of you guys can reccommend wheels that would fit what I'm looking for, I would LOVE to hear them. I'm pulling my hair out trying to find something that works.

 

Just bought these from Rishie at AutoRnD

the 18" weigh 19.6lbs

The 17" should meet you requirements

oh ya. That's a nice wheel. A bit more than your budget but how particular on style. Sounds like you need function over form. I can offer you these, but autox is all tires man. So don't cut corners there.'

I have several options for you. Let me know if you're interested.

Rota Subzero in silver - $600.00 shipped, 17,7.5

Enkei RPF1 - $950.00 shipped, 17,7.5

Enkei RPM2 - $825.00 shipped, 17,7

5Zigen FN01RC - $750.00 shipped, 17,7

The RPF1 is the lightest. The rest are about 1 pound heavier.

Let me know what tires you want and I'll see what I can do. These should all be available. If you answer tommorrow I can check inventory. Those are you club prices.

Later, Rishie

 

Thanks so much for the help guys! I've been going crazy trying to research wheels. I'm not going to be abusing the wheels through auto-x, but i'm building my car up w/ performance in mind so I don't want heavy wheels. I do have to worry about durability, though. I live in Detroit, and our roads a very very bad. As for tires, I'm looking at either Parada Spec 2's or Khumo MX's in 205-40/17.

 

How much for the Rota Subzero's with Sumitomo HTR Z II tires?

215 40 or 205 40? Does the price include the caps and nuts and locks?

Thanks

 

Rishie,

Can you give me a quote?

Thanks.

if your looking for width of 7 or more inches you need to go to 40 mm or less!!!!!!
