Ledge Posted October 29, 2010 Posted October 29, 2010 Hi Ben Do you have any of the 17x 9.5 Rota rb's available , I want a couple of spares for the rear Regards
BenZed Posted November 9, 2010 Author Posted November 9, 2010 We are not bringing in any more Rota wheels! Sorry for those who were waiting, but we are tired of dealing with this company so we have cancelled our order. All of our remaining stock is available to forum members at 20% off our normal retail, so for Zeds here is what we have: Grid 16x8 +10 (white) $795/set RB 15x8 +4 (steel grey) $635/set RB 16x8 +4 (steel grey) $795/set PM me for freight costs or pick up at our shop. The good news is we will soon be offering a different brand with lots of sizes to suit Zeds. If you still want Rotas there is another importer in Queensland bringing them in now.
Whittie Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 And I only just bought mine too This is a super great deal guys, these rims are seriously good looking stock!!
BenZed Posted November 9, 2010 Author Posted November 9, 2010 And I only just bought mine too Sorry about that, only made the decision today. Remind me next time you buy something and I'll work out a discount for you.
bryan3976 Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 happy to hear your moveing on something wide 15s would be nice
peter t Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 Ben does your new wheels have anything in the style of the RB's
bryan3976 Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 i think rotas are actually copys of watanabes
zzzzed Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 oh bugger.. i had money put away for a set of 17x9/ 17x8.5 Do you have any thing else that will fill out my zg flares?
zzzzed Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 Is Lurch still selling his 17s? I am not sure but i do know his are not wide enough to fill out my flears
Roberto Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 Don't worry Mick. You can still get them from the following: http://www.rotaaustralia.com.au/ http://www.option1garage.com.au/NewWheels.htm The wheels we want for flares are sold out though (unless you want white ones). Not coming in for a few months

bryan3976 Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 thats the real deal no more fake rota rbs good sizes two
RB30X Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 Are they going to come with a non-fake price tag though. Most of us are cheap skates.
BenZed Posted November 10, 2010 Author Posted November 10, 2010 So long as the exchange rate doesn't tank on me I can keep the prices reasonable, but nothing like as cheap as Rotas. I am buying direct from the factory and shipping by sea, so they will be as cheap as they can be. I'll put prices up as soon as I can, but I'll start a new thread for that.
Whittie Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 Are they going to come with a non-fake price tag though. Most of us are cheap skates. In my "Zed Rebuild" email folder I have an email quote from a WA group who import Watanabe's, infact they work out of the suburb I live in, for $3300. I also have a quote for a set of Rota Rb's from Sydney, including delivery to my door for $1200, followed by a purchase order and reciept..... Wat's are good, but for that sort of money there are a LOT of other wheels to have to cross off the list first.
C.A.R. Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 Ben, am I reading this correctly, in that these two sizes: 16x8 +0 4x114.3 R type to suit Datsun 240Z, KPGC110 (front) 16x8.5 –6 4x114.3 R type to suit Datsun 240Z, KPGC110 (rear) 240ZG, 280Z (front) will fit under standard/stock 240Z arches? (i.e. No flares). Cheers.

Wat's are good, but for that sort of money there are a LOT of other wheels to have to cross off the list first. I expect the average set to be closer to $2500.

peter mc Posted November 10, 2010 Posted November 10, 2010 you get wot you pay for 2500 is a good price for quality rims
