Hello,

Am looking for a set of these:

Rota Grid
16x8"
ET20
5x114.3

Any colour welcome aslong as they are not buckled or massively curbed.

I have only ever found two other Ludes with these wheels, I am looking to drop the car almost as low as the green one, the white one is crazy low and I actually think the front is resting on the bump stops...

Always worth looking of driftworks mate, that's where I got mine from

There is another lude on this forum that has those wheels...

Don't think he's looking to sell yet though!!!

Sweet, didn't know there was anyone else running them in the UK on a Lude, anybody got any pics of it? I imagine it i'll need to roll the arches and perhaps trim the bumpers to run them?

4 stud obviously, and only 10et so they do need some arch rolling, and that's with 195/45 tyres.

Jon bought them off me awhile ago, and since I've been looking for the 5 stud same as you and I think nothing half decent has turned up yet lol

Damn I have some competition! I have spoken to rota wheels in Thailand, and they told me they are not making this wheel size in 5x114.3 any longer due to lack of demand.
There is one company in the states that sell them in the size I am after, but the cost is £635 shipped plus VAT & Duty... and I can't really justify the cost! I'll be running my 205/45 Parada Spec 2's on mine, so probably will still need the arches doing..

(Forgot you're after for a 5th gen, so 5 stud fitment rather than 4 anyway - Jon's safe from an attack of the vultures

!)
