You will all have to wait and see

I'll post a teaser when the arrive!!!!!! I now know how excited parks was!!

 

[XNicolalaX]

Haha! :lol:
Will hopefully see them properly at TRAX

Make sure you get them covered before going on. Couple of coats of something (for even coverage). As I've now got a few other guys using it, they'll all confirm how good Planet Polish Wheel Seal and Shine is. Effortless to apply, seconds to clean and not hugely expensive to start with. Just a weak shampoo and you'll have spotless wheels again.

I've tried a LOT of wheel products, this keeps me coming back

They won't go on until they've had several coats if some sealant that Parks used on the weekend.

Hopefully a 45 profile is slightly more comfortable than the 40.

That's the stuff he used, which I'm sure he pinched off Davey who I originally sent the link to. Discount available too

 

[waitey]

UPDATE: new wheels yo!

 

[manofhow]

Yes they are!

And yeah we always bring food and alcohol from Germany over when we visit relatives, at the back there's 8 boxes of wine :lol:

Oh and teaser...

They're not quite white, more of a creamy colour but I think the colour looks good, plus hides dirt better than gloss white

Stop teasing us waitey, your killing me here!!

I present, rota spec R at a distance they blend in white but up close they're creamy! Slight concave to the spokes opposed to the flat turinis and there's a tiny lip before spokes.

The suspension has settled since then but I am awaiting delivery of my coilovers to fit and slam the smurf to the ground.

 

[XNicolalaX]

Very nice Waitey! Looks spot on.

 

[lgonzalez]

They look spot on buddy!

 

[the_notorious_C_A_T]

I thought they were turinis before the reveal!

How light are they as Rotas are usually light?

About 7kg including the tyre I think, they feel lighter than RS wheels that's for sure.

 

[jamesw]

They look great fella!!.. Once you've got the coilovers on it's gonna look cracking

 

[waitey]

UPDATE: badge covers arrived and are now on, ill claim to be the first

 

[user 980]

I like the wheels mate! They definitely have a slight look of the turinis.

The badge covers are good aren't they, I love my black ones!

Yeah they're very similar to turinis but these are a cream colour and have a slight lip before the spokes, also the spokes concave in slightly but from a distance they're the same, up close you can start to notice the subtle differences.

Oh and just got a phone all coilovers are arriving tomorrow!
