To be honest, sometimes I feel that they are perfect for our cars. As you wouldn't fork out a small fortune for a car that probably costs less then the wheels. Rotas are good choice, lighter and also cheap.

I had them on my Type-S, extremely light and with the correct tyre they were awesome.
I guess what I like is the fact they are not too different of a style from the Motegi Rims...

So don't make the car look too OTT :) I'm still debating whether to get some, and what colour would be best for my Black Lude :)

Once I have the Motegi kit fitted in the next couple of weeks this will be the next task!

The Bronze does look nice! However gun metal would equally look good! D:

Also I'm open to suggestions on where to get them at the best price :) Or any forum discounts :P

@nitin_s1

Are they the 17x7.5? Look great! What tyre profile are you running?
