Hoping someone can help.

Can people post their pictures of either Rota Force or Rota Fighter wheels please.

Seen ones on google but they don't seem that good quality and most the threads on here no longer display images due to photobucket etc.

Thanks in advance.

If the JR5 are the same design then look at the first few page of my build thread for high res images of black ones on my CW DC5 mate as my car came with them on, I have since removed them and gone back to OEM.

The Japan Racing wheels seems to have a better colour match to Rays Bronze

Colour hard to show one the Rota too. In artificial light, they look like this. Much more bronze in direct sunlight though.

Thanks so far gents.

This thread really hasn't helped. I'm even more confused. 🤣

I like the shine on the bronze but those Matt bronze look incredible in the light!

Get the real deal, job done 😉.

Can't fault you on choice of spoke design the Rays CE28 will always be a firm favourite amongst none stance far car enthusiasts.

I agree with Chris. I‘m not a fan or cheaper cast wheels, yeah they look great and are cheaper but the flip side is they are weak. The amount of Rota‘s I‘ve heard of snap/fail and break, mainly on track makes me want to stay clear of them sndcthe likes.

I‘d rather wait and buy genuine forged alloys and know they are of high quality that will last.

If just fircroad then they can be fine but under pressure On track etc I would stay clear personally

Area Motorsport use them on their track cars with not one failure. We'd love Volks/Rays but our car doesn't sit in a heated garage and never used. The car is used and the saving compared to CE'N's can go towards upgrades that will improve the car.

I guess like most things it's a compromise.

Had about 5 sets of rotas and all my cars get used on track. Not one problem....

I do always buy the brand new and not second hand though as I don‘t know how they have been looked after previously.

Just buy the ones Chris is selling and then paint them in any colour you want.

That's what I was thinking but buying new is not much difference.

Why would I do that when can get brand new for similar price?
