Rota Slips on S13??

[SR20S13]

just wondering if anyone could show me some pictures on some slips on their s13 hatch...

i have a blue hatch and was thinking about puttin some 16" polished slips on it...what yall think??

[dickie]

offsets are high for fwd vehicle. too sunken.

moved to wheel forum btw

do we have a honda kid on our hands here? i know slipstreams are popular among that crowd...

[SR20S13]

no i just know they are cheap...and i thought they wouldnt look bad polished...

that's cuz they're knock offs of the Spoon SW388 wheels. Spoon = Honda

to the OP... they only come in high offsets, because they're intended for hondas. Unless you wanna rock 40mm spacers, don't do it. There are plenty of wheels that will work for the same price and half the hassle... not to mention they only come in 15's and 16's...

I like the idea but I'd do white if I had blue... but that's me

SW388 => Spoon Spec'd Desmond Regamaster Evo

They come in low offsets too and large diameters (hard to find in 18's... want a set for my S2k in NSX width/offsets)

If you're not lucky to find a set of Regas... Rota does make a +35 offset in this wheel. I ordered a set for my S2k from this site for a winter wheel but got a winter car instead (just couldn't stomach through the winter)

Looks like you'll have to run spacers to run the 16's (sell you my unused bronze 16x8 +48's if you want them)... or just go 17's

hmm... I didn't know that Rotas actually made them in a larger diameter and lower offset. that's news to me.

anyways, Regamasters are the sh1t if you can find them in a decent size (Rota's +35 on a 8.5" is still weaksause on a 240 though)

heres some pics of real deal Regas 17x9+18 on an s13

Agreed... def weak... but so are most cheap wheels... run the 17x8.5's front and back and it would be a good option for cheap wheels...

Those pics are awesome... definitely saved those

This is what I want for my AP2

My AP2... it needs those wheels... needs

So in short SR20S13... keep your eyes out for a set of used Regas... because this wheel is the real deal and can come in the right sizes. Used I've seen them for around +/- $1000 for the set in good 17" sizes

i used to have a set of rotas on my old car before a semi dropped it's driveshaft in front of me on the highway.before...after...the driveshaft

it actually split two of the rims in half.

p.s. sorry for the threadjack
