Group Buy - Rota Slipstreams or Rota Grid - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

davidsolarbell · 08-26-2012, 03:00 PM

Hey Everyone, if you have started looking into wheels you'll probably see that many sizes are not in production. Rota has a min quantity of 3 sets. I want to see if two other 86 owners happen to want to go in on a but with me for Flat Black Slipstreams or Grids. Currently you can get grids in 17 x 9, but I would like 17 x 8 or 8.5, allowing for a more aggressive looking offset. Another wheel I feel would look great on the car would be the 17" Slips. I know they are a bit played out on other cars, but I think they'd look amazing on our cars. Some benefits here, are both of these wheel will look decent without doing a suspension mod. Thought I would throw it out here. Feel free to PM me or respond to this thread.

17x10 White Rota Grids pleaseeee

davidsolarbell · 08-26-2012, 07:58 PM

I dont think 17 x 10s will even fit on our cars. 9 looks tight / close to me. I'm thinking 8. That way the car will still be a bit tail happy

They don't make Rota Grids in white for 17". If they did, I would have bought them already!!!! I'm down to get 18x8.5 Rota Grids in White if that helps

Rotas usually come in a lowest offset of +30 for 5x100 wheels.

I enjoyed the 16" black slipstreams on a Honda Prelude two cars ago. Would love to see what 17" slipsteams look like on the BRZ...
