[mjjstang]

I dont know what they look like do you have any pictures, I need some cheap rims.

[stillmatic]

I'm in for the 16x8 +10 in bronze with polished lip.

[TeeJay]

Ard josh,
you said that at the end of this month you were going to have a shipment of these wheels coming in (specifically the 16x8 +20 in gunmetal). Is this goupbuy taking the place of that shipment? I hope not...

[kilword1]

Heres some pics!!!

BUMP FOR GREAT WHEELS!
got my set from the last one just got tires for em will post pics soon :) :rawk: :rawk: :rawk:

[AutoRnD]

sadly yes this takes place of the current wheels..
rota pretty much did not even bother making any more of these wheels at that time.. so sadly i will notbe getting any other ones.
so this is either for black w/ polished lip or bronze w/ polished lip.
anyone?

[hellion240sx]

do you know the weights by any chance?

[whooha1217]

black w/ polished lip 16x8 +10 offset

[TeeJay]

Alright Ard josh, I'm in for a set of 16x8 +20's
...and it better be 2 months, or I will.. uh.. whine like a little bitch.

and I don't give a fuck what color, both choices suck as far as I'm concerned. I'd rather have just the regular dark silver/gunmetal that's on the S13 hatch above. But whatever, I'll take whatever this groupbuy ends up with.

Do we pay up front or what?

[tokes¹]

is it possible to come by and pick up the rims to save on shipping cost? ...if so how much

[240silvia]

I'll DEF. take a set. 16x8 +20. Bronze with polished lip. I say bronze because when you have a black wheel, you can't really see the wheel. With bronze... it will be nice!

[phreze]

Count me in for 16x8s +10 Broze with polish lip, inless you can get gold with polished lip :)

[psychoblue]

do you need a deposit?? if so how much?

[TAMTANIUM]

anybody have it on their red S13 coupe? hatchback is fine too i want to see how it looks like. Thanks

[whooha1217]

is it possible to have 16x9 with +10 or +20 offset?

[phreze]

I don't think so they already have the mold for this size and offset. A 17x9 10+ would make a pimp wheel thought but rota currently only makes 8wide.

Any chance at all for the royal gold color? I just saw it here http://subydude.com/osc/product_info.php?cPath=21_200&products_id=276&osCsid=6b26a6c5ee5fcb8f83e27ada5ab0ba6a and it looks fricken sick.

p.s. Any chance for a groupbuy on some rota boost rims?

[g2ic02]

damn....i was hoping to get a set of the gunmetal +20's.....i am definetly not a fan of polished lips..if you can just get a bronze with no polished lip i will be down..

[exitspeed]

Nice group buy, but you should be banned for having that pic in your SIG. Seriously, tht is the sickest thing I have ever seen. I wouldn't buy these just cause of that.

[AutoRnD]

ok.. we are going to go w/ bronze w/ polished lip.
10 and 20
16x8
pick up is same price cause ca residents must add sales tax.


this would be paid in full.
and just wait... =)

[hellion240sx]

wait so no more all black? and how much do they weight thanks

[zaneithan]

i might be in, when does this gb end?

[AutoRnD]

groupbuy ends in about a month and a half.. pretty much once the wheels are here no one is allowed to get in..

so the final color is bronze w/ polished lip.

[g2ic02]

do you have a sample pic of what that would look like?? because if it is going on for a while i might be able to save enough money to have them powdercoated if i don't like them....damn turbo seals are going out

[AutoRnD]

pic of wheels on car are located on this page just scroll up

[n240sx]

Nice group buy, but you should be banned for having that pic in your SIG. Seriously, tht is the sickest thing I have ever seen. I wouldn't buy these just cause of that.

yes i agree. especially since i was at WORK when i saw the pic that was in your sig. seriously, that was really messed up.

[kandyflip445]

What pic in his sig? The avatar? It's quite nice and the jiggly boobs were nice too when he had them. ;)

Do you have a straight on shot from the front on the s13? So you can see if they stick out with the tires.

[n240sx]

What pic in his sig? The avatar? It's quite nice and the jiggly boobs were nice too when he had them. ;)

no there was a huge pic in his sig yesterday that was obviously changed to the image you see now. i know it couldn't have been just me and exitspeed that looked at this thread while that pic was up. . .

[nlzmo400r]

so if im correct, theres ONLY 16x8+10 and 16x8+20 bronze w/polished lip available. Lets see some pictures of them.

[kazuo]

Josh,

Is it possible to simply purchase one pair?

Thanks.

[phreze]

No pictures yet becuase these wheels arent even made yet. Check out the pics further up to see what the bronze looks like then try and imagine a polished lip :)

[sultan]

they will look similar to this (if the pic works, if not just cut and paste):
http://www.rotawheel.com/WHEELS/GRID/GRID%20ROYAL%20BRONZE.jpg

it's called royal bronze. assuming i get a job in the next month i'll buy another set of +10s.


the sig pic people are complaining about was the tub girl pic. i bet it was unintentional, josh probably linked to a server that doesn't allow it.

[Projekt_Sil80]

Anyone know the offset on the gray fastback? I'm assuming it's +10?

[hendogg8]

Anyone know the offset on the gray fastback? I'm assuming it's +10?

It's +20. The gunmetal ones from the previous GB were all 16x8 +20.


So are these new Grids going to have a decent lip with a flat face, or small lip with concave spokes? Thanks!

- Henry

[Project D]

The bronze would look great with the polished lip. I think I would rather have some 17 inch wheels though....................

[nlzmo400r]

anyone know how big a spacer i owuld need to clear z brakes?

[g2ic02]

alright you sold me with the those....i am gonna pick these up...i would just rather pay later, closer to the date that the wheels are shipped out. thanks

[AutoRnD]

it would be best to have it paid sooner than later.. if there is not enough interest it may not get done..
and to clear z's we are uncertain... these rota's will be similar to the previous ones.. in that they will be concave spoke w/ minimal lip.

[AutoRnD]

bump this thread up

[AutoRnD]

bump for nice fitting wheels.

[hatchxceler8tion]

is there still room for more on this groupbuy? Also when will the expected date be? Is a Deposit needed or can I just buy when you receive shipment? Please get back to [email protected] has it been decided which one it is? I'd rather have the gunmetal with a 20 offset. Thanks. Also, Is it 650 shiped for cali poeple too?

[makav3li]

i would get in on this, but 16 inch tires cost as much as 17 inch tires. actually i get a better deal on 17's cuz this one shop has so many sets in stock

[makav3li]

looks nice as hell though

[phreze]

If you really want rare rims these are a good set to get only 10-20 being made in this color, offset, and size. Why spend $300 more on 5zigen that everyone has?

[Jcb890]

any chance of getting tires in this for a good price too?

[ayes]

unless i missed it, how much will they be without shipping?

[gbond15]

is this group buy still open

[AutoRnD]

sorry tires not included in this price although i can get you tires and mount them before they ship out...
and if its picked up it will be 650
and yes this groupbuy is still open as of now,.

[420sx]

mmm i might be in for a set if this lasts a lil more

[BOROSUN]

does anyone know how much they weight

[kilword1]

bump for great rims!!!! i got mine! and love em!

[Jcb890]

Ard josh - sent you a PM regarding tires, etc. let me know.

[AutoRnD]

ok guys, the wheels weigh about 18-19 lbs.. arent the lightest but are durable and strong.

[HaLo]

when will they be ready to ship?

[AutoRnD]

60 days or so.

[Jcb890]

I PM'ed you back, please let me know about tire selection and cost and whatnot.

[HaLo]

When is the limit to order them?

[phreze]

When they are shipped from rota the group buy is over. I too am interested in tire packages.

[Jcb890]

i'm still waiting to hear back about tire brand/size availability and pricing.

[AutoRnD]

ok guys.. for those that are interested in tire sizing..
please email me at [email protected]
there is a lot of different tire sizing and tire choices to choose from that i would rather personalize each person's request than to make a broad tire pricing.

[FaLKoN240]

So, which wheel is the wheel that you are selling? The bronze, the GM? +10, +20?

[Jcb890]

I replied to the PM about tires, should i e-mail you instead?

[ZK]

I remembered someone working on a 17" 4 lug rim? Any word on that?

[AutoRnD]

no 17 inch 4 lug wheels at this point..
so right now.. what i will do is go with
GUNMETAL +20's and +10's
tire packages are available.

[phreze]

What so these rims are going to be gunmetal not bronze with polished lip? If so count me out.

[hendogg8]

Yeah, I was gonna pay with my next paycheck, but I'm not gonna jump in if this is gonna be for gunmetal. Also, I thought the primary color choices were black or bronze with polished lip, since Rota didn't offer the solid gunmetal and solid bronze. If you can do solid bronze again, I'd be down for that. I can also settle for bronze with polished lip as well, since that was the original plan?

[AutoRnD]

aiya..
i am going to make this like the last one..

+20 are gunmetal
+10 are BRONZE

[hendogg8]

Hellz Yeah!

[AutoRnD]

ok guys...
so
it is settled
16x8 +20 gunmetal
16x8 +10 bronze.
same as last groupbuy.
groupbuy pricing is 650.
i have one set of +10's available right now for 650 ...

Also all payments must be recieved before july 15...

[phreze]

So its not gonna be bronze with polish lip anymore just reg bronze? I hope to powder coat the bronze part gold and have a nice polished lip :(

[logik23]

Just wondering, the pics of the gunmetal S13 with the bronze rims, are those +10 or +20? And what's the tires size?

[AutoRnD]

those are bronze +10's...

and yes it is just full bronze or full gunmetal...
that is it.

[DriftSpecial180]

Josh you need to do 8 +20 in bronze too, that way they will fit for my front.

[dillusion13]

Sorry, this is off topic, but is it a kit or just custom lights that the demo s13 has?http://www.autornd.com/Images/grid202.jpg http://www.autornd.com/Images/grid201.jpg

[logik23]

It's most likely custom ,you can buy those lights at like AutoZone or something, stick some high wattage bulbs in them and ghetto rig some brackets at Home Depot.

[g2ic02]

are there any pictures of the fitment of the +10's on an s13???

[AutoRnD]

Ok guys.. i do need preorders otherwise... the boss man will not let me order them up.
So send it!!!


also this guy has the +10's
http://www.autornd.com/Images/grid101.jpg

[DriftSpecial180]

but those are only +10 in the rear. Front wont fit, reasonably.

[AutoRnD]

that is what negative camber is for =)

[hendogg8]

So Josh, we need to pay you in full through paypal? You're not taking deposits? If the GB doesn't go through, will we get full refunds?

Thanks!
Henry

[sidewaysbob]

hey can you pm me about all info needed, do we get to choose color?? how about shipping?? and tire packages?? thanks a lot

[AutoRnD]

Ok guys, payment in full must be made. as long as i get 5 buyers the buy will go through. and yes full refunds.
the color is either the gunmetal for the +20 or bronze for +10
shipping is included in price
but if you want tires email me for tire packing pricing.

[hendogg8]

Josh, do we send the money to [email protected] via paypal? Thanks.

[richardxfeng]

Does tax apply to CA buyers?Once we pay,how long do you expect to get the wheels?

[AutoRnD]

payments for paypal send to [email protected] now... when sending payment.. please include name adress, SIZE COLOR OFFSET, ADRESS and PHONE NUMBER

and yes tax does apply for california residents.

[AutoRnD]

Ok guys GREAT NEWS for those wanting +10's
i have FOUR thats right 4 SETS COMING TO ME TODAY!
so if you want +10 without a wait now is the time to act.

[hendogg8]

Josh, I just sent you $650 via paypal for a set of those 16x8 +10 bronze you will be receiving today. I will be picking them up, although probably not today. I'll call you up later. Thanks!!

- Henry

[AutoRnD]

ok payment recieved..
guys i have 2 sets left.

[i8yourfwd]

Any definate date on when this is ending? I don't get paid till next week :( Also a friend of mine wants to know what would fit better for his S14? +10 or +20? I'm assuming +20 also correct.

[hendogg8]

Any definate date on when this is ending? I don't get paid till next week :( Also a friend of mine wants to know what would fit better for his S14? +10 or +20? I'm assuming +20 also correct.

AFAIK, S14's can fit bigger/wider/lower offset wheels than S13's. I would say go with +10's to get them flush.

[PANGES]

I'm down for the bronze +10's what's your paypal?

[AutoRnD]

for s14 your best bet is the +10's it may be tight in the front but in the rear it will be great.
also paypal = [email protected]
so far no one has dropped down deposit so it will remain open and then upon first payment will close 1 month after that

[g2ic02]

I want to send you some cash, but i can't have that much money tied up if no one else is gonna buy in. Come on guys, i need some new shoes.

[ASIA]

I'm definately going in on this. Just waiting for my next paycheck. BTW, is there a definite date on when these wheels will ship out? I need these before I go off to college in late August.

[sil-hybrid]

if I can get one set of bronze in +20 then I am down and will sent in payment I know you can just get negative camber but I really dont want to have to camber them or at least a pair of +20s for the fronts and I get a pair of +10 for the rear.

LMK

[Al_S14]

any S14 pics(kouki preferably)gunmetal with +20? jus tned to see before i make my final decision

[JimLecesse]

I will definitely order a set of these wheels, but I can't send the payment until August 1st? If the group buy is over by then, is there another way to get these wheels (even for regular price)? I haven't seen many, just a set on ebay in 5 lug.

thanks

[AutoRnD]

ok since no one has sent payment yet i will postpone groupbuy end of august.. and then orders will go in.. but i will not order unless i recieve at least 5 of 10 wheel buys first.
if at the end of the buy, and there is not enough i will refund those.

[i8yourfwd]

Sweet, mayb I'll have enough money/credit to get them by then.. lol

[lmnhed]

OK, my car is the flat black one with the Bronze +10's on the rear. I have 245/45/16's on all 4 wheels. I actually have the fronts on the car now, as well as the rears and these wheels are sick. Unfortunately I am 2000 miles away from my car right now so I can't post any new pics up. But I was able to get the fronts to fit by bending up the lip of my fender and throwing crazy negative camber into the mix. Either way if I were to do it again I would get 225/45-50/16 tires for the front, the strecth for the skinnier tire would help out alot in the front.


And if you have an S14 definitely get the +10 wheels.

[AutoRnD]

i agree... 10 for the s14's or the couragous s13's
and 20 for the more conservative boys

[zaneithan]

i agree... 10 for the s14's or the couragous s13's
and 20 for the more conservative boys


ill hopefully have my +10s mounted up on my S13 this weekend and will take pictures

[PANGES]

I'll have my +10's on my s13 this weekend also. I'll try to get pics as well.

zaneithan: what tires u running? I'm doin 225/45/16 front and 245/45/16 rear

lol.. doin my fender pulling today or tomorrow morning

[zaneithan]

lol.. doin my fender pulling today or tomorrow morning

same as you, 225/45/16s in the front and 245/45/16s in the rear, i went with falken grbetas

[PANGES]

same as you, 225/45/16s in the front and 245/45/16s in the rear, i went with falken grbetas

I had my fenders rolled and pulled by SmogTech. He did a good job, the rears sit perfectly flush and the fronts still stick out a tiny bit but they look good. haha. I went with yokohama avs es100's.

[vegas240]

I'm interested in this GB, who has a pic of the +20s on a S13 fastback? The previous pics in this thread don't work. Thanks!

[dennnnis]

i got the + 10s with 225/45/16 es100's all around and just got them on my s13. ill get some pics later

[AutoRnD]

groupbuy closed and cancelled. Check up on my other rota groupbuy.
