Yeah. I would be down for a set of 18s down the road. But with 18s, I would want something aggressive with a stepped lip. I was thinking of a 18x9 & 18x10 setup of DY champion wheels for the street. 17s would be for track but until I get 18s, I just want 17s.

Interested to see these RT5s though..

I like my DPT's but i'm thinking I want something in hyper black instead so I will be back in the market probably in the spring hopefully the new stuff will be out by then.

diamond racing will make them for you, They're cheap but they're heavy.

r15mohd · 09-05-2012, 12:34 PM

buy the rota's and have them filled and redrilled to 5x100...i know a few ppl who have done fills and redrill for various cars to fit certain wheels before.

Rota Grid will work. Clone of a Volk. Wheeldude has them.

If there's enough interest we'd be happy to do the RB's in 5x100 for you guys so you don't have to deal with the redrilling.

They are Rota wheels.

So glad I checked this thread. I too would love some of these rims, although not so keen on the blue. What other colors would be available?
