Looks good.

looks good! which vendor did you pick them up from? also, how is the ride/acceleration compared to stock wheels? Are they heavier than stock? thanks.

Rims are hot.

Question... why 215's on a 9" wide rim? Would any wider tire rub the fenders or struts?

Kept to 215's cause of the low power output of this car, and my low skill level in drifting lol. It did well on the stock tires and suspension so I decided to stick with 215's for now.

Got them from wheeldude.com a loooooong time ago, he can still get em though. The car still accellerates the same far as I can tell, havent tracked it or anythin yet though. The next drift event isnt until early Sept :( They are pretty close to stock wheel weight I think, goin by the arm scale lol.

looks good! the drop makes it look even better

17x9 torques are 1lb lighter than stock. Your DZ101 are 1lb heavier than stock.

So you are dead even but have 2 more inches, better looking offset, and a much better looking wheel. Nice.

looks good. what are you lowered on if you dont mind me asking?

miodculae 07-20-2012 06:34 PM

i'm really surprised - in a pleasant way - that rota is able to keep the weight down on
these rims. they're not as light as the original product, but for them to come so close
to OEM weight is a huge plus. i didn't think i would ever consider Rota as an option,
but now . ..

they look great on your car. excellent fit. do you have any plans to track them ?

mattles 07-20-2012 06:39 PM

those are +30?! Didnt think they would fit that. Looks verrrrry good.

Actually the Rotas are gonna be my spare rear tires for drifting after my Works show up :)

I have a question about your wheel. The colore of this wheel is super bronze or full royal super bronze!? Tanks
