RRP according to Driftworks.com is going to be £920GBP
Rota FAIL its like a bar welded into a normal set of alloys......
these really are not for the drift market.
as a few pics show on DW they can look very cool on evos and scoobys.
not my cup of tea at all but on the right car they look good

maybe if they were half the price , but you could get some serious wheels for that money , even 2nd hand ones !!

they look good on subarus but they the original enkei wheels and the enkei wheels nearly cost the same as the copy!!
not a wheel for the "drift market"

i think they just ran out of ideas and put that bit around the inside through the spokes and made a a different looking wheel rather than a very plain boring one, dont like them at all
I think they rock, I still wouldnt get them cos their rotas, would rather the original enkies, there is a cool looking white r34 with white ones of these on and it looks well. would agree though these arent drifty wheels. more time attack
horrible. Worst wheel ive seen rota put on the market.
Coming from a valeter - those look like a bitch to clean..... :D

dont think they're the same, if its the r34 im thinking of, they're defo not the rota copy, as its around a long time!
At the same time, they suited the car down to the ground!

this is a true grip racing wheel design knocking the design is on your own head its not about fitmeant or " HERRAFRUSH1!NESS " or SillIest here its about a quality wheel design!
note how the rota rims were all warped backwards in that pic some1 put up..
they didnt chuck the link ring in there for nothing - its for more braceing.
they being the original engineers such as ENKEI etc..
However i think ROTA are rubish an purely for cheap thrills any heartfelt particular enthusiast wouldnt own a set bar they wana wreck them

fire away, but i bet you can find broken pics of any brand wheel, also seein as there seems to be more people runnin rota's then anythin else theres obvioulsy gonna be higher proportions of broken and warped ones.
I'm not sayin there good, there just not a shit as everyone makes out ;)
@drifter the red wheel in that pic you posted is not even a rota rotas dont have the spokes al the way to the centre!
new wheels looks shite as do the original enki any of them webed spoke wheels look crap imo
they look terrible:( i wudn't buy them
yuk !!! :o thats my imput LOL
yuk !!! :o thats my imput LOL
Nikki unless you post pics of the boobs nobody cares what you think:p
For a fwd drive car they might be okay (pulsar ect) but to be honest I can't see their market extend past that. It is one of their bigger let downs of late IMO.
horrid horrid looking wheel,big fail from rota
