In that offset sure, but in the proper offset I don't think they're all that ricey.
|
konig rewinds also look like that and they come in 15x8 with something around +30ish offset
|
Those are the same wheel I have and I don't give a shit how many ppl in here call them ricer wheels I still love them.

Damn so many wheels that look similar...I kinda like the way these look on the car :nuts: and I was / am anti rice, well maybe not so much since I drive a miata :laugh:...I know the 6ul is most definitly a superior wheel from a track aspect, but I dont plan on really ever tracking my car or driving it compeditivly so these may be an option for me in the future...think I like the rotas
Rota RB: http://www.rimstyle.com/data/product...go/large/1.jpg Fastforward Drag: http://www.jlbmotorsports.com/rims/f...cs/FF-GOLD.jpg Konig Rewind: http://www.technotoytuning.com/Rewinds/goldrewind1.jpg Panasports: http://homepage3.nifty.com/japanese_...panasports.jpg Sportmaxx 513: http://www.wheelmax.com/_images/prod...X-513-HL_z.gif Watanabe: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/for...watanabe15.jpg |
I've got some wheels that look like that I'll sell you....

Id go with Panasports or Rota RB. The rest look like they are too overdone on the lip.
|
The Panasport and the Rota are the closest and most faithful to the original Minilite design. The others are taking the classic Minilite look and making a rice casserole out of it.
|
If I go this route it will definilty be with the rota rb's...just dont know which offset I would go with. They have +4, +20, +25, +35....the ones on this car are +20:

I've also seen an HRE wheel die on a porsche in grandiose fashion. |

I've also seen an HRE wheel die on a porsche in grandiose fashion. On a serious note though, any known issues with the rotas or unhappy campers? I know they weigh more than they should... Attachment 203155 |
I know a few people who track rota "spoon knock offs" with no problems.
