Rota Torque in Hyper Black?
I would love a set of 17 x 7.5s in hyper black! Any chance of getting these in the near future?
Thanks!

Sorry, not in the near future. Maybe in the medium future.

I see the Rota Torque in Flat Black/Red Lip... do you have any that don't have the red lip? Also, I'm new to the whole tire/wheel thing, so what size tire would you recommend for the 17 x 7.5? Any rubbing? Room for large brakes? (Sorry, I'm new to the tire/wheel game..
)
And if you don't have any Torques in just flat black, same questions for the Boost and Slipstream
Thanks!

Hi wbarnhill,
I responded to your questions by PM, but to reiterate:
- No, we don't have the Torque without the red lip at this time.
- You can choose from several tire sizes, including 205/45R17, 215/45R17, 225/40R17 (rare), and 235/40R17
- No, it shouldn't rub assuming the car is at normal-to-moderately-lowered ride height.
New topic:
We have another new wheel for the MINI. It's the SVN, 17 x 7.5":
Rota SVN -- click me!

Find prices for any of the wheels I've talked about by clicking the links near them. Slipstreams are found
HERE .

Yes, but the smallest 17" size Kumho V710 currently comes in is a 245/45R17 -- that's not gonna fit on your MINI.
I'll PM you about some other tire options.

Sorry, no 18x7.5 MINI-fit Subzeros are in the country right now, and I don't think it's likely there will be soon.
I'll have some other 18" Rotas in soon, though...stay tuned.

I can't seem to get the shipping calculator on your web site's shopping cart to work. What is the out the door price to ship a set of Rota RB or Torque wheels in 17" to zip code 46038?

Dan, Do you offer club or member discount? Can you mount and ship tires too? Bridgestone G019's to be specific.

Sorry, no. We try to price our stuff as low as possible, though.

Yes, but the cost of shipping mounted wheels and tires is so high, it's often not worth it. If you're not close to use, it's usually better to just get your tires and have them mounted locally.

Well wouldn't you know it! I'm in Lorton.
So perhaps we discuss a local picked up cost. I'll email you.

What do you recommend for autocross? Most of your 17s seem to be in 7.5 width. I need 17 x 7 with 48 (or very close) offset to run in G stock. Lighter is better, but money is an issue.
Thanks.
