I know Rotas are basically all knockoffs of other wheels (just like most other cheaper wheel manufacturers), but just because they don't cost a lot doesn't mean that they aren't good quality. Rota wheels are lightweight & have been used on thousands of cars with only a couple cases of structural flaws. IMO, they are the best wheels available under $1000.

That is very true the price difference may probably was 3x what rotas cost. But rota makes a damn fine wheel. Would you rather have two three sets of rotas or one of advans? Its all up to you, once I get my wrx I will have to see if I would spend the extra money on wheels, or performance.

Sadly,I don't like that S2000. That must be the first, well second ugliest S2000 I've seen...First ugliest is none other than the PINK one...Yeah, you know which one I'm talking about(ricer)
Your P5 is just awsome though. Good job!!

What's wrong with the yellow one? All quality parts (Mugen engine componenets, Mugen hard top, Volk wheels).

You sound like my neighbor, i think he dreams about those wheels. He is like "we officially have the nicest wheels ever made on planet earth", i was like chill out bro lol............he ordered them in 17's chrome, they should be here in a couple weeks, they are for a honda though so the rims will lose a couple thousand in value when he puts them on lol

well considering i will be owning the only set in CHROME in the entire united states (that i know of) i dont think i will lose any points,... AND they are 5 lug

Sweet lookin P5 man! Its SICK..... Is just the rear airbagged or is the whole car? What kind of bags and compressors/vavles and lines and stuff are you running? I love it, I hope my P5 that I get will be that nice.

The mirrors are nasty & the stickers make it look cheap (although I'm sure they're just for show).

I'd rather own 3 sets of Rotas than 1 set of Volks (even though I love the Gramlight 57Pros). One set for normal driving (17 or 18), a 2nd set for the track (15s with slicks), & a 3rd set for autocrossing (with good tires). Or if you live in a place where it snows, 1 of those 3 sets could be Rotas with winter tires.

I hve to agree with many of the guys here. I'm not really digging the gold on yellow, but just hink if you did powdercoat them, thats another mod to add to the list, not to mention you would be the only guys with those advans in the (new) color. Then they'd be even more unique for shows.

just my $.02

Another mod to add to the list? This is the funniest post i've seen. Hey MATTHEW please move this post to the humor section, it was posting in the wrong section. I will powdercoat my ADVANS's when somebody buys a s2000 and does an engine swap and puts a geo metro engine in it.

Thank you and have a wonderful day

YellowBaggedP5 · Nov 4, 2003

All my body work was done at www.berjamautocreations.com. The bags are 10 switches (fbss, 4 individuals, seesaw, pancake), 1/2 inch line, SMC valves, 1 6 gallon tank, 2 viiair 450 compressors. All the suspension stuff is through www.ecmcustoms.com.

Thanks for all the compliments.

im not a mod anymore, i bitched too many people out and hurt their feelings. lol.

i must say i didnt like the rims when you just posted pics of them, but seeing them on your car - i think it looks really nice. i think some daytime pics might do it more justice?

supman · Nov 4, 2003

those are amazing rims! i'm freakin jeolous....

I know you won't lose points. You have one of the nicest hatches i've seen. Now post some pics and break some Mazda owners necks.

YellowBaggedP5 · Nov 4, 2003

oh yea, i would rather have 1 set of Advans than 7 sets of a knockoff wheel. Wheelmax.com has a clearance section brand new 17's with brand new tires for $499...i can buy about 7 or 8 sets of those with tires for the price of Advans, but what would be the point? i'll stick with mine.

YellowBaggedP5 · Nov 4, 2003

yea i like it alot more in the daytime, im gonna take pics saturday or sunday with the rear valance on and hopefully the dual gauge pod painted the same yellow. I just can't take daytime pics during the week because of work.

Padanky · Nov 4, 2003

Looks good, handles look great!

Your car looks totally awesome. I love the Paint The rims are outragous Advans are the s***!! I love all the carbon fiber extras that you have on.

You have put alot of time and imagination into your ride and it shows. Good Job!!!

I cant wait to see the interior of the car.

To the Haters This is a great example of a good imagination and hard work.

I give you many props man. Please keep up the great work and dont stop.

Todd.
