Rota Circuit 8 Wheels
 

Didn't know where to put this thread so I guess "Appereance" is the best for this topic...</P>


For those of us who like the appearance and cannot afford the Mugen MF-8 wheels ($2000 at least), there is a cheaper alternative to the real deal -- the Rota Circuit8. These wheels come in severalcolorsbronze, gun metal, silver, white, and steel grey. </P>


Since I would only like to spend close to $1000 on a wheel/tire set, do you think the Rota Circuit 8s are the way to go since I can't afford the Mugen's at the moment. $2400 compared to $1000 is a BIG difference in price for abt the same thing. I'm leaning more towards the silver or steel grey colors since my car is black.</P>


Here are pix of Mugen's and Rota's wheels:</P>

those look pretty good, Ro.</P>


If they're a quality wheel, I'd get 'em. One question though,can you get center caps for them?</P>

The Rota's do come with a center cap but not sure if you can get them in different colors like you can with the Mugen. Not sure how these will look on my car, but making a decision on a wheel/tire pkg is kind of difficult coz there are so many choice. <IMG src=smileys/smiley5.gif border="0">

SOOOO many choices, but I think they would look sweet! Definately go with the silver, If u had a silver car then I would say go with a gunmetal color. My car is black with silver wheels and I love the look!

Speaking of choices, the other3 wheels I'm currently looking at are the Nakayama Zoro 10/X7 or the Rota GT3.Nakayamas will be 17" and the Rota's will be 16".</P>


Zoro 10: $158 each</P>

** Out of the 4 (Rota'sor Nakayama's) which one would look good on a blk coupe? Of course the color will more likely be silver xcept maybe the GT3. The red GT3 on a blk car looks sick as f**k. ( http://www.jdmcivic.com/forums/showt...s=&amp;threadi d=41858&amp;highlight=rota+gt3) I really like the Nakayama's, but the Rota's are cheaper and have a good reputation so far. Hard decision indeed.<IMG src=smileys/smiley19.gif border="0"></P><edited><editID>Roentgen</editID><editDate>38108.5374537037</editDate></edited>

well when some of you get some new rims lemme know if you plan on sellin your honda rims if ya got them. i would just like a nice set of the honda rims instead of the damn hubcaps.

Not sure if I would like bronze or gold on my car.. not my favorite color for rims. I'll prbly stick with silver or maybe the red GT3s coz they look nice on blk cars as well.</P>


green98, I thought all recent hondas came with rims instead of the hubcaps.. maybe I'm wrong?</P>
