I'll be first to ask.

Ok so i plan on getting some Slipstreams from Rota for my integra and if i wanna make it flush with my fender could i use spacers to do it? Or would i need a wheel with a different offset? I will also be having some stretch on it as well.


Thanks SN !!!! I know you guys can answer my questions.

What specs is the rim? Let's start there!

Not exactly sure, but i'll ask tomorrow. But are you able to make it sit flush with your fender with spacers in general? On a wheel that don't have an aggressive offset?

[IIXtremeHansen]

yeah you can get spacers if its the wrong offset. you really need to know the specs when purchasing any wheels.

[Elvis]

Well to sit flush with fender and no SPACERS you gotta have the right offset, and they have to be pretty wide. Don't know much about Teggy's but I'm thinking 10" wide? Get us the specs.

ive seen 15x8 and 16x8 +20 slipstreams but there very rare.lol rota slips rare.but for real u not gonna be real flush with them

I would research Rota a little bit before buying wheels from them.

Typically:

Rota = garbage.

If you're looking for easy to find, inexpensive 'starter' wheels, I'd consider SportMaxx. They're not a top-end company, but for the price they have a nice selection and good offsets.

GST Motorsports and LIC both run Rotas on their Time Attack cars without issue. Both cars are WELL over 500hp/500tq. I wouldn't worry about Rota's = caca
Team Dynamics Wheels are run on dozens of WRC cars and are also affordable with crazy offsets.

Anyway, wheeldude.com can help you with getting a flush offset. Their customer support is awesome and they are heavy into the scene.

Friend them on Facebook and check out the pictures they post of some VERY sick stanced cars.

This, coupled with the million other horror stories, should give you an idea of the quality of Rota wheels.

Those are about a bajillion times better than the Rotas.

Rotas are garbage, and Slipstreams have to be the MOST played out wheel of all time. At least go for the real deal Spoon sw388's if you are going for that style wheel.

[EAmon]

[Mv350]

[evil_panda]
