Default FS: 4 x 17" Rota Grids



Had these for a few years now and ended up changing wheels. The Rota Grids are 17x7.5 with ET45 offset, no issues with rubbing at all on 215 fr and 225 rears.

They are the charcoal ones with silver polished rim and never been kerbed.

However they are in need of refurbishment as the laquer has got water under it causing it to flake.

They would make great track wheels or alternatively provide a great base for a refurb. There are no good tyres on the wheels.

Looking for £200.

Edit - £175 now

Pics of them new -

have you got any more pics of them on the car. i'm interested but just trying towork things out.

are the tire sizes currently on the widest you can go. and still maintain best handling. i was originally looking for some 18's that would offer a wider track; but i'm very tempted, and have some cunning refurb plans.

i was very tempted on these bu they gave me the push i needed to go and buy some new wheels.

these are going to look really nice refurbed.

if anyone needs any help i know of 2 places that will refurn them for under 200 quid. both very good and properly powdercoated and done at the correct temps to avoid damaging the orignal casting.
