Interested in these shipped to 11224. Also is there a difference in price depending on the color? Also I would really be interested in these in gold or even red with the red line, hopefully they'll be a demand for one of those colors.

Any chance on a 19x9.5? 18's just look too small on the X.

The Grid wheels are coming in a 73 hub bore, we would include 73 > 67.1 hub rings for the Evo. Balancing issues are usually with tires/install error as all Rota wheels are put on a balancing machine after production to make sure the wheel is within spec.

you can PM me as I'm interested in a few of the Rota styles just picky about the offset/size and fitment. BTW this is for Aktivematrix new shop car.
We do have 18" Grid staggered setups for the 350Z/G35, sending you a PM with more info!

Yea the new wheels from Rota are awesome. Great quality and finish for an affordable price

The 18x9.5 +20 wheels are an aggressive fit for the Evo 8/9. You can fit this setup however you need fully rolled fenders and I would stick with a smaller tire size unless you are willing to run a good amount of camber.

The price is the same regardless of color (unless we do a chrome finish), the 18x9.5 wheels are $900 shipped. I have Matte Bronze and Hyper Black on order for these wheels right now, to get Gold I would request it in our group buy thread here as we can special order it

We have the P45R wheel coming out in 19x9.5 and 19x10, these wheel be available for the Evo X. At this time there are no plans for a 19" Grid.

I have no problem with replicas, these aren't even close to being a true "replica" as these are cast and about 5 lbs more per corner!

Well done suby dude, they actually look really damn good.

Yea they are similar to the P45R, just one extra spoke and a slightly different concave.

Thanks! Yea the main difference is that these are cast aluminum wheels instead of forged. The difference in weight on a street car is hardly noticable. For example with our new 17x9 DPT wheel (CE28 replica), I took off a set of 17x8 Volk Racing CE28's from my car and put on the 17x9 Rota DPT with the same tires. The 17x9 Rota DPT set weighed only 4 lbs more compared to the smaller 17x8 CE28, on the street the car handles considerably better with the wider wheel and I can't even notice a difference in acceleration with the added 4 lbs.

I want to buy wheels from Subydude because he puts his prices out there instead of these other shady wheel salespeople who refuse to discuss prices publicly.

$900 shipped for 18x9.5 sounds perfect to me. Anything is better than those terrible GSR wheels.

Whoa, sweet looking rims, can I trade in my set of gforce rims that I just got from you guys ... just kidding, I'm loving them. These rims would look sweet on an Evo 8/9 if they came in 30 offset. Bump for a fantastic vendor.
