Default Just ordered new rims!!! Slipstreams!

Thats right i finally gave in and I ordered some white Rota Slipsteams 15x6.5. Unfortunately I have to wait 3 or 4 weeks till I can get them. Apparently Rota doesn't make very many of the white ones, but they suddenly became popular so everyone is out of them. but i'm pretty dead set of getting them so i just preorded them for when the place gets them in stock. The guy said that he ordered some from Rota and that he should be getting them in about 3 weeks or so. So as soon as i get them and get some tires i'll get some pics up.

heres the ones i'm gettin:

actually, they might even be desmonds, i'm not 100% sure, but either way, rota is just a copy of them.

ya i don't know. both the white and blue are both race cars in the UK but the specs page doesn't list brand, just sizes
