Well Well, Rota's i heard are like cheapy rims like payless shoes, sure thier neat but their cheap. Buttttttt! The Rota Attack i was gona buy costs 512 with shipping from tornactive.com with the ephatch 5% off discount. They weighed 15.1 Lbs for the 17'. Now thats pretty good, but come on its still a rota. I like em alot, thier very nice, would i put them on, Maybe?

But the Spooon copies look very nice i like em!

The only Rota with which I'm familiar is the Slipstream, because it's a well known Spoon imitation that's used by ITR people.

I've seen many Slipstreams in daily use and on the track, and I've never known anyone to have a problem, although you will occasionally get a poke from people about their being Spoon/Desmond imitations.

For guaranteed good service, I'd check out http://www.machiii.net, where they've been taking care of picky ITR people for quite some time.

have you tried calling every shop in your area? they are the same price at most shops and they are cheaper than if you get them shipped so i'd try calling everywhere within your limits.

Sam.

I've seen them at First Markham Place at a store called Option Auto. They quoted me $1400 with kumho tires for the 16 inch mugen replicas. They do carry other rota wheels as well.
