Any pix available of silver Rota RBs on an R56? I searched but did not find.

Neither is in stock. RB probably won't fit the bigger JCW/R56 brakes. Slipstream is not currently available in 15x8.

Any chance of a group buy pricing for the Mach V springs for the R56????

I would also love to see the Rota Torque mounted on your Dark Silver.

I don't think I was clear with my original question.

Should have asked: Any photos of silver Rota RBs on an R56? Also, will 16" RBs fit on an R56 with no additional hardware?

Just mounted a set of the 16x7 Rota RB's on my '08 R56 MCS, perfect fit & the TPMS sensor fits fine as well. I'll try to post a picture of mine tomorrow.
There is no additional room for brake calipers bigger then the stock R56 MCS (same as the old JCW).

Rota RB's Silver 16" w/ polished lip


more pictures in my gallery, I'll try to get an outdoor/daylight picture(s) from some better angles & upload them to my gallery tomorrow.
I think the 16's just look so much more proportional/classic

I think that's what you asked before. But I don't have a good picture.

Also, will 16" RBs fit on an R56 with no additional hardware?
Yes.

Thanks, N1tr0. They look great! I'm also a fan of 16" over the bigger wheels.

I'm currently looking at the Rota Torque for my 05 MCS. Any idea on how wide I'd want to go for tires?? 235 or even 245 too wide?? Might just have rubbing issues most likely.

Dan,
Olga (MAXCOM) and I are thinking about getting some flat black tires for her R56 and for my R55. She currently has 16" 5 spoke rims with runflats, and I have 17" 5 spoke rims with runflats on mine. Any ideas that you can share would be welcome....(would PM you, but thought there may be others here with a similar question).

Thanks,
Pawel

235 is very wide for the R53. Look around this forum. There are only a couple of people running that width.

I'm not clear exactly what your question is. Is it, what wheels come in flat black? (I assume you mean WHEELS, not TIRES. Because all tires are flat black...)

Eventually. But they're not currently in the U.S. It would be a couple of months to get them.

I see Rota Torques on the rotawheels.com website in steel gray. Is this the same as your hyper black?

Hey Dan,

The 16x7 Torques in Hyper Black that you carry . . . do they have the 56.1 hub bore? Thanks!
