rotas on my s14?

im looking for some 16in rims and run on some 50 series tires. the only ones that are descent are some rota circuit 8 bronze. you guys think they will look good on a s14? i've never seen any 240s rolling on some rotas. and i was also wondering if they will fit 240s cause i had some old time supra wheels with same lug pattern and the center cap thing wouldnt go through. let me know what you guys think. thanks alot.

16 look way to small on an s14. And 240s roll rotas all the time, not as often as cvics which use a different bolt pattern and offset. They do heve some pretty bad *** offset but in weird as truck patters only.

16's look great on s14s... they are 16" from the factory so why not keep it? 16x8 +10 is nice. rota also makes the d2 wheels (ssr prof knock off) 17x8.5 +25

16x8 +10 is pretty damn flush on non-rolled fenders, of course i would run 16x8 -10 if i had a choice.

okay... pictures talk 16x8+20 (+10 will be about .3" further out)


notice i said flush on stock fenders? that means no rolling, no pulling
yes you can tuck 10" +20 on rolled fenders... but they stick out. thats not flush. stretched tires are not flush. you teh jdm fanboy

oh mybadd, mines a base model (4lug) thats why im looking at rota wheels. i do have a set of 18's, they're katana concept-5. use to roll of them but it was too heavy. the reason for 16's. so i can have nice rims that wont effect my performance. thanks for your reply.

If you took the time to comprehend after you read it might help.

THE RIMS HE ASKED ABOUT!!!

>>>>>rota circuit 8 bronze<<<<<<<


I know the grids are avail in 10/20, henceforth why I called them hottness. I knew about the rims before they even shipped. Was just talking about the circuit 8 the guy asked about.
