    opinions on rotiforms

    Ok I am going to go pick these up tomorrow and just getting everyone's opinions. They are 17x8 et35 5x120. I have 18mm adapters which should be perfect. I dont really know much about them but they seem to be an expensive wheel and I havent heard any complaints about them except for the price. Not sure which E30 Im going to put them on yet but for the price I dont think I can pass them up.

    Same shit as every other new wheel company just different design and color. And $2500 markup.

        They aren't reps, they are very nice wheels. A friend of mine owned a tire/suspension shop and was a Rotiform dealer. They have several of their own designs along with other inspired by designs.

          I'd call them a rep, because they're another BBS E50 look alike, or even a larger enkei 92.

          I also don't really feel much for their stuff anyway.

            Love a lot of the designs they have as well as ccw and fifteen52, but they just seem so overpriced even if they are 2/3 piece. If you got a great deal scope em up though.

              Overpriced for the trouble you're going to go through to put them on (adapters and not the offset of your choosing)
              I would pass unless you're getting them for a great deal.

                I picked them up for $1500. I all ready have adapters that I picked up a few months ago sitting in my garage just waiting to be used for something. I have 3 E30s so I have a few different options to choose from as far as what I put them on. 89 black vert with tan top that I think they would look really great on and it has a 5 lug swap or I can put them on my white Mtech2 touring. I havent done the suspension on that yet so Im still not sure if I am going 5 lug swap or I can just use the adapters

                  1500$ is a steal.

                  Last time I emailed them to have a quote for 3 pcs wheels they were 7K $ CAD. This was ridiculous....

                    The guy I bought them from paid $2500 for them. They are the cheaper 2 piece welded wheels.

                      Those look exactly like a set of Rikens I bought for $250. If you really like that look search for Rikens much much cheaper.

                          Those are nice looking, but the offset is too high, IMO. Mesh centers need a good size lip.

                              You cant really tell from the pictures because they are still wrapped in plastic but they have a 2 inch lip. Not big but still enough to look good
