birdmandan Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 Well guys just a little update!Got up today wanting to acheive a few things Sooo headed outside and started giving my Rota Cups a good clean ready for new tyres and fitting Cleaning:The result:Then the bear turned up and he wanted his car lowering some more lol....Lowering:Then a sneak peak with the Cups on! Please bare in mind that this is at standard ride height also so not lowered yet for the hella flush look, also they are wrapped in toyo proxies t1R's but i need to quickly chew through these tyres so i can purchase some more with more stretch and a lower profile for when i lower it,Not the best pics as i use my phone but from what you can see i ask you for your honest opinions good or bad!Also i am wondering what peoples opinions are on the centre of the Rotas, should the colour change?Dan.

Amjad Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Those look immense! I'd keep them that colour Quote Link to post Share on other sites
birdmandan Posted January 14, 2011 Author Share Posted January 14, 2011 Yeah im in two minds really, they will be staying like that for a few months at least while i save some pennies up for some meisters then i am either gonna spray the centre spokes glass black or leave em like that, not sure tyet though They just look sooooo shiny lol!Dan.

cazzac2222 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 They look mint dude, i think id keep them like that but gloss black would look mint hahaIts crying for lowering lol, will look epic once you get the meisters mate, make sure you get a panhard rod aswell before lowering if you dont want to eat through a sidewall like me haha, or rool the arches like said Youll have to see what its like on the back when lowerd as you might need to throw some spacers in there, either way will look the sex dude.Come such a long way mate, good work!!!

Glad you and so many others like the wheels!! Yeah i will try get hold of one, what does one do again? how would it stop the rubbin when lowered? Like said though i cannot wait to get her lowered on some meisters! if some of my parts sell it will be sooner rathre then later i hope I just know im gonna have major problems when it comes to lwering but i want a nice stance so i guess im gonna have to pay some serious cash to get it looking nice, also gonna need some lower profile tyres with more stretch to gimme the arch clearance i need! :/I don't think I've ever Seen rims so deep look mint in the flesh tho Dan Thanks AJ Comment is much appreciated and also was lovely to meet you and your mrs yesterday, you have also inspired me to paint my under bonnet Also does anyone know how much it is to get arches rolled?
