sloutrou Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 Hi all, The touring alloys on my gunmetal GT have seen better days and my two rear Vred's are due for replacement, so I'm using this as a good excuse to get some new shoes. It looks like Driftworks stock them, and Rotashop (have never bought from either so wouldn't know who's best). I want 19's rather than 18's, the car's not lowered and is running on stock suspension (for now!). I'm looking for 10.5 rear (the deep dish type), and 9.5 front, both at ET20. If anyone has these wheels, could you post some pics? I'm stuck for colour, leaning towards bronze but I'm undecided. My current touring alloys are satin black which were obviously sprayed on the cheap and now flaking to bits Thanks:) Jez Quote
sloutrou Posted June 17, 2013 Author Posted June 17, 2013 I really fancy a change for black, and also black seems to blend in with the tyres too much for my liking. Apparently they do one with a polished lip but I read somewhere this attracts stone chips etc and looks good for the first two weeks! Quote
evilscorp Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 Check out cougar store, got these from them. Very popular wheel so try the search and you will find some pics probably. Not many people running crazy colours tho. 2 Quote
sloutrou Posted June 17, 2013 Author Posted June 17, 2013 Wow they look good, are they 19's and is your car lowered or on stock suspension? Only ask as they really fill the arches out nicely. Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 Jez, here's a link to a few sets we have supplied to the forum, I'm sure we have more on our facebook page - http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/56120-rota-grid-wheels-19â€-–-new-colour-options…/ Quote
sloutrou Posted June 17, 2013 Author Posted June 17, 2013 That's great, thanks Have you supplied any in white, I really don't fancy the black so I guess it's between bronze, grey and white... Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 We're still waiting for a brave member to try the white Grids - http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/63652-rota-grid-19â€-wheels-in-white-from-cougar-store/ Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 (edited) The silver looks great - http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/64113-new-rota-grid-19â€-wheels-in-silver-from-cougar-store/#entry986026 The Matt Bronze we supplied for Simons GM Zed suit it perfectly, perfect Zed fitment...

evilscorp Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 Yes 19" front is lowered (too much maybe ) rear is probably near standard? Altho can't remember what standard was Quote
sloutrou Posted June 17, 2013 Author Posted June 17, 2013 I don't plan to lower the suspension any time soon as I have quite a steep drive, will 19's on a regular setup still look ok and fill the arches? Quote
sloutrou Posted June 17, 2013 Author Posted June 17, 2013 Different colour car, but looking good Quote
evilscorp Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 White! Be different and set your car apart from the rest. Might look something like this. Quote

Jez, the ones we supplied to Karl's Zed went on OEM suspension - http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/55520-rota-grid-drifts-19-fitted-pics/#entry Quote
S1 HNK Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 Steel grey is best : D mine might be for sale very soon too. Quote
MWTech Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 feel free to get in touch here also, I could price up a set for you I had a gun metal zed before my current black one. I actually really liked the standard rays colour silver if im being honest. other colours I would consider is Gold or bronze. unless ofcourse your into the more mental colours such as green and pink!

sloutrou Posted June 17, 2013 Author Posted June 17, 2013 Where can I get the same colour as the car below? Can't find what the colour is? Quote

sloutrou Posted June 29, 2013 Author Posted June 29, 2013 I'm really undecided between the Rota Grids in matt black and the Linea Corse Dyna in Hyper Black, the offset is better on the Rita's but can't help but think the spoke design on the linea suits the Z better. Offset vs design, I can't make my mind up! Quote
