dude I like the wheels, but when you said you don;t really care about the wheels that threw me off. The wheels make a huge part of your cars appearance and performance! like THHHHIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSSSSS big.

Glad I didnt go for the bumper vents (or whatever they are called). Really does look odd, probably not so obvious on a black car but this one really does look like a face.

As I always say, to each their own though. Still curious if that direct flood of air at high speeds would do anything to power. I'd have to think it would. Those older street bikes saw huge HP gains when they started pushing ram air and amending the airboxes to get direct streams of air. Hard to capture though since car remains stationary during Dyno's, that is of course unless one of the newer ones with the huge variable fans is available.

Would be cool to see a test either way.

(Maybe they wouldnt stick out so much if they were white??)

they look good and I bet not a single person on this forum could tell the difference on whether he is running Rota's or Volk/SSR/HRE etc with a drive test.

I really dig black wheels on white cars, definitely dig the wheel choice IMO

Don't worry what others say - I feel no shame about you buying Rotas. It's your car and your money; buy what you want. I think it looks ok.

Why are you asking, its what HE likes and rota is not a bad company so everyone seriously stop trying to turn this into a wheel debate thread. Volks are a HUGE waste of money, b/c 80% of people on here are never going to track their wheels. If you DO track your car, why in the hell would you use over$3000.00 wheels with lips and stuff on a track that could damage the finish on the wheels anyways? You can buy enkei RPF1's, and have a cheaper set of wheels for looks and everyday and be less then volks. Its common sense, so please chill out on the wheel debate thing, LET IT DIE. Also knowing what I know about wheels, frankly I would spend my money elsewhere just B/C all of the volk whores.

Your car looks great and dont listen to people on here op. THe nostrils, I am not a fan of at all. I know this may be a bit crazy, but I havent seen anyone ever paint the nostrils. I think it would be a nice function additive, but not so hurtful on the eyes if they were color matched to the car.

Great company, not so great wheels. No one was really trying to turn this into a wheel debate, they were just commenting on the fact that to go from Rays to Rotas is counter intuitive. No one told the OP he should go change his wheels, they are just commenting on something someone posted on an online forum. He posted them to get comments right? Sometimes they are good, sometimes they are bad....

Its his car, he can paint it 3 different shades of poo brown if he so chooses...just don't come in here asking for comments because we are going to tell you it looks like ****..

I'm not sure which wheel debate we're supposed to let die either....maybe there's some fervent world wheel debate I dont know about... I'm also not sure that Volks are track only wheels either.. some people like having high quality wheels on their cars

Yay for freedom of speech.

And I had rotas on my last car as winter wheels, 2 were bent by the end of the season. Believe it or not, they are worth a third of the price for a reason.
