Rota's for sure. So sick of P1's, although you can't say much for Rota's too i guess.

All I can say is, buy the one's you really want, I realise you've narrowed it down to 3, but I'm sure one of them takes your fancy more. I spent $3000 on rims only to be dissapointed in the end..... you can take your car to most tyre shops and they'll put the rims up against the car and see what it looks like.

agree ^^

I say get a gold wheel. White car + gold wheel = HOTTTTT

and paul, the bloke wants to spend a few hundred, not afew thousand on regamasters. Besides, he'd have to find them first:p and are the rota's a copy of the rega evo, or the spoon wheel :p LOL, who cares, either way they are an awsome wheel.

Spoon and regamasters are exactly the same wheel. The difference is the decals on the wheel and the colour. Spoons are only black, rega's are available in a few other colours. They are both made by the same company which is called desmond.

This means that the Rota slipstreams are a ripoff of both spoon and rega's. The black slips are a ripoff of the spoons whilst some of the other colours are a ripoff of the regas. White slips would be a ripoff of the regas.

Rota slipstreams are also available in colours which were never released by desmond such as royal black, royal gunmetal (the royal means they have a polished lip) aswell as a couple of others.

Well you'll need to get that nut off somehow and have a new thread put in (i dont know whether to call it a bolt or not! lol). Thats all i know, ive never needed it done before, youll have to ask your mechanic for the cost.

ummm, dude, i was only being trivial.
I've actually held a genuine spoon wheel (sw88??) and i saw stunned at how light it was, It was unbelievable, and this is SOOO off topic.

BTW rega's are available in white and silver
