18x9.5 +15 Rota P45R245/40/18



18x9.5 +15 rpf1(not sure the tire specs)

honestly, I'd go with teh 5-lug and rpf1 route.... only because once you get bored of the rpf1's, you still have a HUGE selection of wheels to choose from...

as opposed to staying with 4 lug... wtf is there left to get? Unless you want some 15's or 16's... you really don't have much to choose from.

thanks for the pictures. both wheels look nice on the car. i think i will convert to 5x114.3 to get better size and offset on the wheels.

Answers plz! Anybody know a vendor that sells any p45r's in 4 lug? Or are you just screwed if you missed all the group buys?

In case anbody was still wondering... Rota must has updated their webiste, cuz this info and these sizes weren't all available when this thread got started...

I had a local wheel/tire shop contact their west coast distributor for me. They gave me a quote for a package deal with a 4-6 week wait since I wanted a special color. Happy shopping guys!

They quoted $895 for p45r's in 17x9.5+12 in Hyper Silver all around. $1400 with some Falken tires I'd never heard of... BF something or rather...

I'm gonna see if my car club can get them cheaper though...

I'm assuming that is at least a little more than it would be in one of the offered colors, right? Sounds kinda high for some Rotas.

I totally agree. But I love these wheels. And I don't think the 1 pound of wieght savings the LMGT4's is going to make my bank account happy.

In the end, I will buy these wheels, but I'd love to see them priced around the same as the Elite wheels... about $160 a pop...

Except for the fact that they are knockoffs, I actually like the P45R's better. With the LMGT4's you don't get the concavity in the front, only the rear, and that just looks very strange to me.

Although, LMGT4's can be bought in even better sizes and offsets than the p45r's. It's just that you hardly ever see those because ppl only sell the ones they're getting rid off from their Nismo Z's...

I've seen up to 19x10.5+15, but the prices for these NEW is astronomical.

I didn't mention it before, but I just realized the prices they quoted INCLUDED shipping from Cali to Texas. I guess when you consider that, those amounts aren't too bad after all...

I dunno, I think it would be pretty hard to beat 17x9 +25 and 17x9.5 +12 for an s13.

Of course, youll need a small spacer for the front to clear coilovers, but only a 3-5mm one. Then it's a killer setup.

Yeah, true. Just saying that the LMGT4's are available in +10 inches. The p45f's aren't. But hey, thats overkill for most 240's anyway...

Are the 17x9.5 +12 just a crucial concave as these wheels? Or is it only like that for the 18 in wheels

The 17's should be just as concave.

The S14 with the Rotas looks hella sexy, but I personally dont like the RPF1s.

+1 for P45Rs!
