Call us indecisive, but we can't keep a set of wheels on our car for more than a week
 
Just mounted a set of Rota MXR's on our shop FRS

The specs are 18x8.5 +44 front and 18x9.5 +38 rear

The color is Royal Silver and the tire sizing is 225.40.18 front and 255.35.18 rear

We are lowered on KW Variant 3 coilovers, which is a night and day difference from any spring setup...not to mention the super nice stance they give the car :)

I love it. But If I were you I'd take the rota wheel caps off and black out the headlights.

It looks perfect. I like how the wheels make the headlights look good. Everything seems to go well together, the painted side markers is the cherry on top. Love it! :)

Also, what is the weight of those wheels?

Wondering the same thing, really like the look, wondering if 8.5 is a lot heavier than stock. Might consider running the 8.5 all around if the weight isn't too bad.

Yes I second this. the wheels look great with the silver badges, logos, and headlights. Looks great. It's a tough call. some will go for the black and white theme but I am leaning towards this. Silver and white. :happy0180:

headlights maybe, but removing the caps wouldn't really make sense as we're marketing Rota wheels since that's what we sell.

We are working on a cleaner new cap design though.
