Rota RT5 is similar but spoke doesn't go all the way out...
Love the way these look but I'm just not into rotas.

LOL i just posted in another thread my feelings on Rota's and i will keep this one short. The RT5 is not a copy of a popular Volk or anything and the quality is fine for a daily driver or even track use. I was going to get them but found something in sizes i liked better.

I'm definitely looking forward to seeing how they look in 17x8 +40.

I'm planning to get these in 18 but unsure what offsets and widths to run.
Front 18x8.5 +45?
Rear 18x9.5 +45?

Also what tyre size would work?

I agree and I thought this was a GOOD thing because the Nismo wheels won't bolt up. I have owned a set of 18" and 19" Nismo LMGT4 wheels in the past and I LOVED them to death.

My concern with these is that the spokes are a little thinner, my brakes will be exposed (brakes aren't too pretty) and the matte finish...not too big a fan of the matte finish.

Seeing more pics mounted on some cars will help sway me.
