ok so I really want the Rota 18" 6 spoke 8.5J all round

Anyone have these on an S14? need to understand what offset to get and will this fit the stand shocks springs for now or do I have to change them right away.

Do the D1R's come in 18" though? I was half interested in a set as theyre advertised as "narrow/wide" but I cant find out how wide or narrow they are. And ET30 isnt doing me any favours as i need a super low ET

Get yourself a set of Lenso D1R's they are made in 15-20" sizes you just have to order them.
I ordered myself a set from overseas getting it end of October.

The set that i ordered was 18X8 & 18X8.5

What i meant was i went to my local mag wheel dealer and they checked for stock locally but there was none, so they ordered a set of 18's for me from Lenso overseas.

Because i wanted to get 18's in the D1R coz they look awesome

I Paid R10k for the mags & tires.
I am just not sure on the tires the Brand is Firenza.
I had them on my Opel Corsa a couple of years back and they where great.

But lets not lie to ourselves my S14 is a monster compared to a 1.4 Corsa.

Does anybody know if these are good tires for a car like a S14?

yip, rota's are the slightly poor'er mans Volks LM's

they still not cheap though, money and quality wise

DDanielmoderator23 Sept 2010, 22:16

Hmmm think il swing past a place and see if they can order them in man sizes. In my experience however I get the "its not on the shelf, tough for you" attitude.
