I think I might be too.

I have "name-brand" JDM wheels on my other 2 cars but think I will consider the Rotas or other "knock-off" wheels this time around... If you just need some solid inexpensive wheels to take to the track or autox then I think they're the perfect choice. I wouldn't want to empty my wallet on some Volks or Rays and then put them in harm's way out on the racetrack...

If so that's mine.

I didn't notice an M3, but it was a few blocks off Mt Diablo, near Chow and Starbucks.

BlaineWasHere · 12-11-2012, 02:42 AM

I just like em because I don't cry when they get curbed or dinged or whatever!!!!

Plus then when I get bored with them in 6 months I can get a new set!

Ugh I hate that grill and fog covers, swapped those out shortly after the photo. Kept the UK300's til I sold the car, though.

Those are Tarmac 2's

ohh yea that's not me, mines outside my house next to the M3 most the time, sometimes with the X5 behind it.

When I bought them in ~2004 maybe they weren't called "Tarmacs" when they were released.

Thanks for the correction.

They were always called tarmac 2's

These are the subzero:

These are the Tarmac 2's:

These are the Tarmac 3's

I had like 20 sets of Rotas within the 4 years I had my WRX haha

Maybe that's because you sell them.
