anyone rockin the new rota grids?

[heartofaskyline]

Where can I find these bad boys online? I don't see them at discount tire, and I don't even see them on the Rota site

you cant. you have to have discount tire call rota and order them. or you can call rota and order them yourself, they will just be more expensive.

Don't hate.

Good enuff for STI's = Good enuff for me.

a friend of mine is rockin those in a bronze color on his build, dont have any pics but they look sexy

[ILoveMyRHS13]

Hahah I didn't even realize someone else posted the same picture as me.

ill just be the first to say that the pic of the broken rota has nismo written on one of the spokes.. Just sayin.. but then again it was probably some fanboy who just slapped a sticker on.

Yeah, I noticed that too. I tried to verify whether or not it was actually a P45R versus a real LMGT4...

But you can tell by the shape of the the extra holes that the busted wheel wasn't an LMGT4. And Bee*R B5 wheels only have 5 holes, so it couldn't be one of those. Could have been a Hanbai DT05R though:

But in all likelihood, it probably was a Rota wheel that experienced trauma which would have done the same to any other wheel as well.

would you mind posting side pics on this thread?

Sorry for the slowness of the reply...

Sorry to bump an old thread. Looking at getting these, any guys rocking these now?

I'm thinking 18x10 on my zenki. Will I need RUCAs first?

[h2v7]

how much do they cost?

[allmtoreg]

^^^ around 800 depending on what size you want. anyone rocking the 5x114 17x9 +25 or 17x9.5 +30? interested in seeing what these sizes look like compared to the 4lug +15

For what? 18x10+15 all around? I'm gonna say yes, negative camber required... unless you like your wheels poking out like 2 inches...

[nismobenzo]

did the OP ever post pics of these wheels on his car???its like he just posted and abandoned this thread..ill have my 17x9+12 xxr 006 tomorrow finally! they only cost 601.19 after shipping and adding tuner lugs

[simmode1]

^^^Man, I've really been looking at those 006's lately! I'd love to get a set and powdercoat the mesh Hyper Silver or gold & make 'em look nice kinda like some cheapass VS-XX's...

[giodachamp]

Here's mine. Rota Grids 17x9 +12. 215/45/17 all around. Definitely needs more drop.

^^More Pics!! I like the way the 17x9's looks more than the 17x9.5. The 9.5's sticks out too much.

[Justin35ll]

I just mounted mine yesterday. 18x9.5 +15 with 225/40/18 all around

I'll post pics when I get home from work. I need RUCA's to straighten out the negative camber in the rear and get a little more pokage.The front looks perfect.The wheels are gay and flatblack with a red stripe, but it's the only color they had in stock. I will be painting them white soon

so true-they look almost exactly the same!i went for the 006s because their size, price, and not EVERRRRYONE has them..-plus black with a 2.5" chrome lip should look good on my 2-tone

[silvia_ks_69]

they were 608 shipped for all 4.

wow, my TE's were around 600 a wheel. but worth every penny

I really like how little work you'll need in order to fit them with some 235 tires... But I always keep coming back to my original plan of mismatched 17x9.5+12 P45Rs and Grids in Hyper Black with 245/40 all around. That's gonna take alot of work to fit, I think, but it'll be worth it...

Here ya go, Mr. Moneybags... lol

[silvia_ks_69]

lol i actually walked across the parking lot and got a few cookies.. om nom nom

[nismobenzo]

you are always oddly specific haha..at least u know what you want tho!

[crakin]

Man I've held off too long the Rota P45R's look so much like BEE*R B5's that I have to get them I have been reading to see if they crak easy or what but wtf I dont want any other rims on a black s14.5(BEE*R) stopped making the B5's

[simmode1]

I love the fact that the Bee*R B5 wheels only have five holes in the center rather than ten like LM-GT4's or P45R's. Too bad they're discontinued too...

P45R's have been on the market for about 2 years now. I haven't heard of any cases of them breaking or cracking. There was one picture that ppl like to toss around online, but that turned out to be an actual broken LM-GT4 from a bad hydroplanning accident:
