18x9.5 Rota Grid

Thanks man! Appreciated the confirmation!

Do you know the details of what and why failed?

I seen many many people use and abuse Rotas with no failures, personally I think the topis is blown out of proportion.

Car was a big torque 300ZX TT (450Kw atw) that was extensively tracked, ran slicks (not semi's) and he would always make extensive use of kerbs.

Spokes failed at the hub ... picture the centre still bolted the the hub and spoke fractures where they meet the centre part of the wheel .... was pretty extreme .... and was the first experiecen my friend had with the need to "life" components, something that I have done as a matter of course.

The other issue is that ROTA's would have to be one of the more counterfeited wheels out there. I have seen wheels with ROTA casting marks where the offets are cast into the wheel rather than stamped, and the PCD detail is wrong, all of which indicates a cheap knock-off and one worth putting onto your car.

I'll post up some photos in the next day or so. Sn ET22 9.5 x 18 will need a half-inch spacer to set it flush, so I'll photograph the rear with and wothout spacer. Just give ma a day or so to get it done.
