I want one :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Heard back from the vendor, they are expecting new shipment of the CF exhaust caps end of this week :thumbsup:
Also, I just installed by OEM blue door panel inserts to match with my custom center console cover
Just a question to all you guys,
How much flaming would I get for running Rota's?
:nut:
I run Rota Slipstreams. You can ask shadowz and 4doorj what they think, they've both seen my carQuote:

Run some <15lbs rims instead. You'll feel the difference, trust me.

for the money.... i dont see whats wrong with rotas in my opinion
bigmass's rota's are really nice
most people cant tell anyway
not everyone wants to spend 4g on rims
i considered it before! but i coudlnt do it... i ran enkei's u can tell the weight and what not... then i went to works... nicer fitment... its hard to find right fitments for wheels to fit the s2000
then i went to volks!
way nicer!
way lighter!
but if money is an issue definitly rotas make some nice wheels in my opinion
but personally i have no idea how the quality is on rota's
well people need to stop thinking the Rotas are heavy. The Slipstreams are lighter then most cast wheels and the 16" weigh the same as 17" forged Volks. They're good cast wheels. Just as good as enkei or any other. Now, not all Rota wheels are this way or good. The Slipstreams may very well be an exception because they're so tried and proven over time
If you like them go for them. If your into them for the sho then hey save $2000.
If your concerned that you're not running the top brands then pony up the $. What do you value more is what it comes down to.

peronally i'm in to them for exactly the opposite reason then show. They're just boring plain black wheels. Volks or Enkei like the RPF-1 definitely look better. They're for %100 percent performance reason. The car is going to be on the race track a lot this year and they're great light weight track wheels. Show was the last thing i considered while buying them. Actually if you're into them for show that's a bad thing because people are just going to laugh at you for putting 16” Rotas on an S2000 lol :rofl:Quote:

Hahaha :werd: but I definitely can't justify throwing away $3000-4000 bucks on some wheels. Modding an S is ridiculous haha.Quote:
