I love my RT5's, square setup 18x9.5 +38 with 265's all around looks mean as hell.

I have had my staggered Rota Grids on my FR-S for 8,000 miles. No issues or complaints at all. I love them and get compliments on how they look all the time.

Any pics? What model tires and what did you have to do to get them to fit?

I had a few sets of rotas over the years. Only issue I had was with one that had crappy paint that flaked off. Wheeldude replaced it for free and never had a problem again.

I have two sets of Torques that I ran on my Si for several years. No problems. Random pic...



The bolt pattern doesn't fit the FR-S, but I am done with white on white anyway. Bring on the LM replicas.

The only legitimate problem that I have heard from several people and experienced myself is their distribution network (or lack thereof) freaking blows. It's pretty much one dude who answers his cell phone at random and is difficult to understand. Lots of vendors have dropped them because of it.

I have plenty of pics but I dont want to post them and thread jack.

I rolled the front and rear fenders for extra clearance as my car is being setup for autocross but it wasnt necessary. I used Achilles ATR sports to get them on the car before the V2lab meet. It will be replaced with proper track rubber soon

Can you make a thread? I'd be very interested to see this setup as well...

Love my grids. They took more weight to balance than i was expecting due to offsetting the tpms sensors

I had a set of Circuit 8's for 10 years. No problems with them until someone stole them last summer.

Yes.... someone stole 10 year old Rotas (cost $500 delivered when they were new) off of a Scion xB. I didn't have wheel locks on them (Because they were 10 year old Rotas).
