whats up guys i just got my rota bronze circuit 8's in 15's today. on one of my rims, theres a part of it where about 1/2 inch of the finish is peeled off or something. its on the side of the rim where you cant see it once you put it on the car. do you guys think i should exchange the rim or just stick with it. thanks

Do you really want to return them? seems like such a minor blemish. I imagine you could squeeze a very nice brake kit under there. Would be an eye catcher at speed. jmo

send them back and get 16's

15's are WAY too small for the EP

i think im just going to keep them because once i get the tires on there, i wont be able to see it at all. i was originally getting 16's but they ran out so i just got 15's. I think 15's will look nice and i got them for only 405 so its not that bad. plus tires are cheaper for 15's. im going to lower the car before i put them on or else its going to look like a monster truck. i need to get a digi cam! :( ill prolly borrow my friends or somethin.

It might be a area where a wheel weight was glued onto the inside of the wheel, and it came unglued. I have seen this happen on many brands of wheels, both expensive, and not expensive.....

so, sacrefice looks for performance?


keep the 15s. rotational mass is less than 16s.

How about bronze Circuit 8's on a white Miata? I know it's not the same, but the color combo looks nice. Scroll down for the pic: http://www.grassrootsmotorsports.com/miata.html

We have dark silver Volks on our white EP, and it does look cool, too: http://www.grassrootsmotorsports.com/02civicsi.html

And hey, we also have a blue 2000 Si (bronze Konig Burners), and I once met Bob Haro!
