Now in stock - 16" Rota RB's!
We've got a limited number of 16 x 7" Rota RB wheels in stock to match the 17" ones we've had for a while. The 16's are lighter, and tires cost less!
I've got to take some 16 & 17 pics, but the 17's look like this:
Ah, here is a pic of both sizes:
And here's an angle view of the 16" wheel to show the spoke profile:
Available in silver and gunmetal, both with polished lip, both sizes.
As a bonus, the 16's are made with a 56.1mm centerbore, so they bolt right up, no adapters or spacers needed. Clears JCW/R56 brakes, and fits 12mm or 14mm bolts.
Rota RB -- click me! Click the link above for pricing and ordering.
Pics and weights coming soon.

Do you know if most tire shops will have an issue changing the tire and the TPMS over?

It should not be a problem for any decent tire shop.
Now available (winging their way here now): RB's in black.
