I love them so far but haven't been able to really test them out with all the rain but thinking I need to go lower. GC street is my top option but also waiting to see the eibach pro street kit.

A lot of HPDE folks run them as rain tires when its too wet for R-comps or slicks. I ran em as street tires on my corvette and they did excellent

As far as suspension goes... Here's what I did...

I need it to be just a little lower, mine are supposed to be 1.0 front and .8 rear, I might go with the swift BRZ springs and koni's or bilsteins. Also thinking about just getting the GC coilovers on the stock struts until there is a full replacement strut available.

I'm really happy with these, kinda surprised how stretched the rears look but didn't want to go 255 in the rear until I add some real power. Believe it or not I've had more compliments on these already than I got on the gram lights.

I can't wait for people to tell me they like my Rotas. :mad0260:

Around here Rotas are known as expensive wheels, I'm not a rota hater at all the rt5 was my other choice but the +44 front was the issue. If they were +35-38 front and +40 rear that's what I would have got.

dori. 01-17-2013 11:58 PM

I'd hate to see what they consider cheap wheels then

:lol: Joke about Rota Titans being copies of my Weds. I'm just salty about it.

Just as an example a local Facebook group member was recommending Drag wheels as an alternative to the high dollar Rotas. They also said I was asking too much for my XXR 530's which I was only asking 500 for. I promptly left that Facebook group after that.
