Post Rio Wheel Choice

Well Im about ready to buy me some good ol' Rota's. Its took me some time to really figure what I wanted. So here's my choice's the "Tarmac 3" and the "P-1", let me know what you think. Unless its smack about Rota's.


I really didnt wanna go with the usual rio setup (Black, White, Gold). Im really feeling this Bronze but I love the Hyper Black on the P-1's.





BTW
check these people out...lol
they sell replicas of every wheels imaginable && cheaper then Rota, in every color..lol

IMO i like the hyperblack on your spa. But bronze isnt bad either, it will keep you away from the Bumblebee look... if you are not in to that.


I really like the Tarmac 3 kinda like volk ce28N ish...

nice choices.. do they come in 17?

and you know the great thing about this is that even though its not a big name you dont have to worry about spending more than $1500 which already includes tires. Rotas can be pretty light too.

none of those are gonna be wide enough for your car

I just puto n a set of gold RPF1s on my SPA. I think bronze is way more common on SPA/RIO then gold is. I had a set of bronze work crs but I wasnt happy with the look

here's mine
17x8+45 front 215/45/17 tire
17x9+45 rear 255/40/17 tire rears have been rolled to fit

you can great brand new work emotions for less than 1250, and for decent tires you shouldnt be much over 1500.. just food for thought.
