Decisions, Rotas vs bbs

i figured i was missing something. didnt make sense to me that you didnt know forged > cast

No worries, amigo. I should have been more clear.

bbs....

irrc the damage was caused by the caliper coming loose and hitting the spokes for a period of time

Hey dude! ;)

It was a rhetorical question. I wouldn't expect a cast rim in motorsports. Track days and HPDEs, sure, but not actual racing.

If the BBS were 16", then no question I'd go with those... but for some reason those polished rotas look pretty damn good on your car.

Slipstreams are by far the strongest Rotas made. nothing wrong with them, many people use them at the track. Any horror stories you hear about rotas are not about slipstreams

Forged, not cast for racing, correct?

yep. forged > cast

No specific backstory to that rim, I've just heard my share of horror stories around the SCCA group about ROTA's when racing.

I would go with the BBS - I like them better - I could care less of the 15" vs. 16" (disclaimer - I am running 15" ronal ls)
