Default New wheels finally put on

Hey guys, our group down here in florida is sponsored by Rota. So, please, i dont need to know how good or bad the wheels are in comparison to other companies; i know!

Anyway, these are the Hyper Black Rota Formula's in 18x8 et 35 with 225/40-18 Federals. Just thought some of you who what the real jdm wheels, but cannot afford them can see what the knock offs look like. Sorry for being all night shots. I will have some day time ones soon:

looks good. some daytime pics would be nice though. I don't see why everyone hats on rotas so much, not everyone can justify spending $1500-$2000 on wheels just so you can be a JDM balla

why run such a low offset and only be able to fit a 225?

proper offset allows a 255 without issue.

well, i got the tires for free so im not gonna refuse haha. I wanted to run a 245, but our head guy bought them for me b/c i wasnt ready to buy tires. Also, Rota needed to see pics of my car for business reasons. Thus my friend bought the tires so they would stop bugging us about my car. But, trust me, after christmas, there will be another set of tires on the car and more suitable.
