Sourcing Rota Wheels
Sourcing Rota Wheels
Has anyone found really good pricing online for Rota wheels? I've found a few dealers that carry the 4x100 pattern but no "really great pricing." I've checked on several sites that Google brought up and a few other car forums so far.
I'm wanting to give up my Rota Slipstream 16x7 wheels and purchase two sets of 15x7 Slipstreams in black so can run identical AX wheels and tires (Azeni RT-615, or Hankook Z-212's) on both of our MINIs.

I received good service and pricing here:
http://www.jaydm.com/subzero.htm
Paid $520 including the shipping for a set of Rota Subzeros 17x7.5.

Subedude guys are nice and service is great, but prices are very high.

Maybe a little late, but here's another Rota dealer. Cheaper than JDM in some cases.

Seems that getting someone to order Rota Slipstreams in 16x7 +40 with 56.1 is tougher than I expected? I'd like the +40 to clear the Wilwood 11.75 kit and to run the tires I've chosen for next autocross season - 225/45R16 z212's.
I know I've seen at least one person online running these (in Full Sports Bronze, IIRC)... Guess I'll shoot him a PM...

Try your local Discount Tire Scott. I found that mine can match or beat the wheel, or tire and wheel packages from 18Racing or JayDM. I have found that the 56.1 hubs are harder to find no matter the source - particularly for some colors like gunmetal and royal black.
One question though - if spacers are used to push the wheels out, and hub-centric aluminum rings are required because the 56.1mm hub wheels aren't available, will this combination be solid and hold up to track and AX abuse as well as the wheels with hub rings and no spacers?

I know an old school private wholesaler in NY. I bought my Konig Rewinds from him, he also sells ROTA.
Ask for George, tell him James the Rewind guy sent you,

Also, I plan on running mine on the street, too, so that's why I really want hubcentric (just a personal preference). My last set of Rotas was not hubcentric, and they were fine, though.
i got mine from 18Racing aswell and they worked with me to make sure I got exactly the wheels i wanted, 16x7 ET40mm in White
they said they can even custom order (for the 56.1hub), but there was a 3month wait when i was looking, but i think that is variable depending on demand

I've been waiting on Rota Subzeros for a while now. Rota has been REALLY REALLY bad about keeping up with their stock. You can check out their current stock (which is generally what all the resellers look at) here: http://www.rotawheel.com/AVAILABILITY.htm
NAM to the rescue!... I hope.
I need flat black center caps for my Sub Zeros. Does anyone have any to get rid of or know where to get them? I can find bronze and silver on SubyDude but nothing on Ebay or any of the other normal sites.
I'm going to ask at Discount Tire but if any of you know a sure way to get them, I'd reeeeeally appreciate it.

i dont know a sure way but the ones that came with my wheels from 18racing.com were carbon fiber (with some black), you could im (aim screename = "eighteenracing") them or call and see if they have some...sorry
here is a pic

Only one is gone and it was gone after a full day.. like 8 hours.. of very hard driving in the mountains. My guess is a squireel or bear has since found it and I should just find something else.
I have been told that some others may fit... I just need to figure out which ones and hope.
