Rota C10 16's "Sports Bronze"(56k Beware!)

[thaipinoy1]

Finally got my wheels on with some Yok ES100's.;) Seems to be a pain in the ass to get the actual color of the wheels with my digi, but should give you guys a better idea of what they look like. :D

Thanks An, I got 205/50/16's....

[Makross]

damn those look nice:p

[CleanBlackSi02]

That's the best looking 16" wheel/tire/drop combo I've seen yet. No doubt.

[thaipinoy1]

The color of the rims kinda throw you off depending on the lighting. Seem like when the wheels are in the shade the bronze lip comes out making the rest of the rim look dark, almost black sometimes. But when they are hit with direct sunlight, the whole wheel seems to look the same color.

[bobdobbs]

Those rims are tight, but you need to use fill-flash to get the right exposure. It looks like you camera is metering on the white paint and under-exposing the rims. Also see if you can select the camera's white balance to sunlight when you're outside; it might make a difference in the color.

or if u walked over to the other side of the car where the sun was shining, it would've been brighter:D

[02SilverSiHB]

damn, looks really good! Have any idea how much the 16's weigh? I keep checking on it and it seems they don't list the weight for those.

Oh and is that a polished lip I see?

[Driftin SI]

That looks great, you just made up my mind on what size wheels to run

15"-13lbs, 16"-17lbs

[CleanBlackSi02]

Damn, they weigh as much as my 17" Subzeros.

[silver ep]

[Suk02Si]

[cpu519]

Hey Sonny man, looks good! That sports bronze matches all the EP colors, maybe even silver. Hmm...

Do they really weigh that much? I figured they would be the same as the slips or circuit 8s, around 14 lbs. for 16". If that weight is accurate they're off my list, too. Damn.

[limp_noodle]

nice wheel choice cuz. http://forums.thevboard.com/images/smiles/359.gif

[klik]

That weight got to be false, 16" for 17lbs when 15" is 13lbs that 4 lbs different for 1 inch gap. at least 15 lbs would be accurate correct me if im wrong?

whats the weight on our stock rims anyways?

[02SilverSiHB]

16" rota circuit 10's weigh 17lbs while the 15's weigh 13lbs.

it is a nice rim, 17lbs isn't really that bad...it's better than a 17" 19lbs rim like myself :)
And that is the right weight. machiii weighs them before they list them.

Your right, i think im not worried about the weight that much as long as a like it i think im goin with it

[zum_zum]

17# for a 16" wheel is actually pretty light, especially for a street wheel. it makes me laugh when people think this is too heavy for their car. it's ridiculous to think you're going to notice the extra 1-2# on each wheel while driving it to and from work everyday.

[FCobra94]

Those look real good man! :cool:

I've been set on getting some 16" Rota's and Yoko ES100's for a little while now...now I just have to decide on whether to go w/ C8's or C10's and what color, for my white EP.

Decisions decisions ;)

[4g63dsm]

where'd the pics go?

[RockEP_SS**]

Damnit I always miss out, I hate red X's!

[zum_zum]

i put a set on my car last week (16x7, sport bronze).

i'll try to snap some pictures tomorrow.

it won't look as good as the original poster, but you'll get the idea. (my car is @ stock height)

[4g63dsm]

man i want these rims, just not sure if they will look good with a CF hood. Cuz i know blacks slips will. man i can't decide

[zum_zum]

bump for myself. i will take pictures on saturday and post.

[raiyo]

Did a search on Imagestation and came up with these. I got bored, so sue me. =) Enjoy people. Hosting pics of thaipinoy1's ride, not mine.

[4g63dsm]

those 16s?

[zum_zum]

yeah, 16x7"

i picked up the wheels for $400 brand new

[4g63dsm]

where'd you get such a good price

[zum_zum]

i bought them at r-speed in marietta georgia. they are miata and mini aftermarket specialists. i think they were having a hard time moving them. i got the wheels, lugs, tires (falken 451) mounted and balanced for $775.

i've bought miata stuff from them, good people.
