Default bye bye rotas....

so I cracked one of my rota's ( go figure) and needed new wheels. Tirerack has a sale on their tr ms C3's for 129.00 which was a hell of a deal I couldnt pass up.

has 235/45/17 evo's on but will be getting 255/40/17 RS-3's here soon.
Still needs the low.

Love those wheels man. I would even consider getting rid of my rpf1's for those just for something different plus I'm getting tired of the plain silver.

Looks good man. Now you need moar lowz.

btw how long did the rotas last you? Wouldnt think you would have particularly rough roads in FL. Did you take a speed bump a little too fast or something?

Its close but doesnt look like i need spacers with the tires i have now. But will be getting them soon just incase.

Honestly i dont know how it cracked, just started leaking air. I did buy them used and think they were abused and it finely gave out. They came off an evo track car so who knows. Also only had them for maybe 8 months

Liking the rims. Like everyone else has said, lower! Lol. Any rubbing in the rear? And I got some rota grids on my car now (purchased used) and I got a crack in the same exact spot. Rim leaks about 20 psi of air every two days. Been wanting to get it fixed, but don't know if I just want to go with new rims (need new tires soon too). Decisions decisions...
