Default Rota D2

I heard the 17" rota D2 did not fit our cars. But now they came out with 18inches. Has anyone test fitted these wheels? I'm kinda hesitant to pick these up at the moment, they look pretty cool at times and look kinda generic compared to the Work Meisters. Any reviews?

I would be very interested too, but the problem before was not the offset and sticking out from the car, but that the brake calipers were not clearing with the 17in

^^ so they will fit offset wise, they just may require a spacer for brake clearance? I'd really like to run the 17's as winter wheels.

that seems like a logical answer, but i don't know for sure if that's right or not.

I called rota today because my friend with a 240sx wanted these wheels for his car in 18" and they told me that they were never produced in 18" although their website and literature says they make it in a variey of widths/offsets for that size.

I called the local distributers and they said it is available and in stock. I was about to pick up a set but just put a hold on the idea until i get some comfirmation. I know the 18x8 +48 offsets are currently available.
