Yeah I think you can get away with a 48 offset on a Hawkeye although you want at least an 17/18 x 8.0, 8.5 works as well.

Out of those its going to be the Slipstream, Torque or P1.

Cheers

I have decided that I can do a great rate of 10% off all Subaru fitment wheels for Scoobynet members but this will be a very limited offer that will only last a couple of weeks (please note this does not apply to non Subaru fitment wheels).
Please take a look at Rota Shop to select your wheels and once at the checkout stage, subtract 10% of the total value! How fantastic is that deal?

If you would like to place an order please call us to check stock/order on 0844 557 1080 (we accept all major cards except American Express) and please quote your scoobynet username. If you would like to order via finance please call us to discuss the process.
If you have any questions or queries please feel free to email me (groupbuy@rotashop.co.uk) or call and speak to any of our sales staff.

Thanks

James

No disrespect but your boost start from £544 while rare rims start from £380 for the same size, just seems a bit suspect to me like your trying to jump in and take a sale from rare rims.

If i am wrong i do apologise.

Besides why add someone else into the loop only to skim their bit off the top so to speak.

Rare Rims are too busy at the moment to deal with this group buy and have asked me to look into it

The difference in price is simple - Rare Rims price is wheels only, the rotashop price is wheel and tyre package. Using the 10% on offer would see the wheels being cheaper than rare rims.

I understand that I am the only person who has approached Julian @ Rare Rims about this GB. I know that I am the only person he has asked to run it.

Anybody thats interested take a look at my Rota Wheels shop and email me at groupbuy@rotashop.co.uk if you have any questions...

Sorry if I have been the cause of any confusion!

How long will this GB be running for James?

I'm in the market for a new set of wheels, but it's probably gonna be a couple of weeks before I'm in a position to buy them.

Looking at Rota - If you are looking for an Rota GRA 17 x 7.5&quot Gunmetal polished face. Wheel & Tyre Package (Lightweight Series) click here Rota or Rota - If you are looking for an Rota GRA 17 x 7.5&quot Steelgrey Wheel & Tyre Package (Lightweight Series) click here Rota

with Yoko PS2 or Proxies..

Cheers..
