No, they're 67.1. But we include the proper hubcentric rings so they'll fit your car.

I gave up trying to order Rota wheels. Dealers have told me they do not know what is in the next container until it's opened -- regardless of what they or a customer ordered.

If a dealer does not literally have in stock what you want, think hard about finding another dealer or wheel. I wasted several months ordering and waiting for Rotas I ordered. As a consequence, I am still riding on Blizzaks though that will soon change with today's arrival of "non-Rotas."

Hi Dan;

I see that in some places it says the the 16x7 RBs have a 57.1 hub bore, and in other places the hub bore is 56.1. Which is it? And if it IS 57.1, does that little milimeter matter?

Thanks!

Both. In fact, they also are made in 67.1mm. Rota seems to be unsure of which they should make, and we never have been able to successfully get them in 56.1mm 100% of the time. So...we take what we get.

In my experience, no. I've run two sets of 57mm Rotas on our shop MINI, with no vibration or any other problems.

OK, Dan. I just ordered the 16x7 Rota RBs in Royal Gunmetal. I hope they're in stock. (I received my blackout grille from you on Thursday; thanks.)

Now I just need a car to put everything on.

Thanks.

Erm...I'm sorry! Another customer beat you to the last set I had in stock, by just hours!

We'll have more in a week or so.

Formel is an old design and probably won't be offered in four-lug. On the other hand, stay tuned for some nice new mesh offerings from Rota...
