Rota RB's now available in 17"

I prefer not to give the price directly in the thread. Since the thread lasts forever into history, but prices change over time, I'd rather people clicked on the web link from the first post. (Here it is again...) That way they'll always have the current price.

So Dan, did you get any rubbing at all with the stock suspension, H&R springs or Mach V's??? I remember at different times you were running on each. I'm considering the RB's with 235/40/17 GS-D3's.

Great news, thanks! Do you have them in stock now??? And does your shop stock tires? Just trying to make my trip to VA as efficient as possible.

Sweet! So any link or list of which tires you all do stock? I'm looking for A/S tires with the best possible balance of comfort, noise and grip. Also if I have you guys order them, is mounting and balancing on the RBs offered at the shop?
Thanks again

Woohoo, had my RBs installed yesterday they look amazing! All worries I had about the gunmetal not looking quite right on my PW/B MINI are completely eradicated. I know this post is pretty much useless without pictures, but my camera is out of commission at the moment. I'll get a couple pics taken with my cellphone ASAP though.
Also can't say enough good things about the Goodyear Eagle F1 all seasons. Great tire

Here they are! Crappiest pics ever (taken at night, under fluorescent lighting and with my phone) but it's the best I can do for now.
Much better pictures to come this weekend once the Eibach springs are installed, JCW black grille trim arrives and I finally get it tinted. Also I'll have a proper working camera by then.
I can't even say how much these pictures don't do the wheels justice. I'll just let the future pictures say it for me.

HOT, HOT, HOT!!!!! If you get the chance could you take a side pic?
If anyone has a picture of these on a PW R53 that would be awesome also. BTW, would there be any problem running the stock tire size on these or do I need to go wider. I read the thread but not sure if there is an issue on an R53 or not. Mine is the stock height and I am not lowering it. We'll might be lowered a .5" from JCW springs shortly.

I have an appointment to get it tinted tomorrow morning, so I'm going to have the shop owner take pics with her DSLR (this same place did my boot stripes, so I'm familiar with them).
Scheduled to get the Eibachs installed Friday afternoon. Hopefully I'll get my camera back that same day or Saturday at the latest.
I installed the JCW black grille trim today. Such a better look IMO. Still not sure if I'm going to go with a complete black out, but that piece in particular gives the car a much more aggressive appearance.
Big thanks to Mach V. Ordered the grille trim Monday when I went in to pick up the Rotas, and it arrived this morning.
