my gravel express on new rota blitz 17x8 et35
here is my work wagon that i picked up the other week
https://www.scoobynet.com/members-ga...van-wagon.html
now shod with some new rota blitz wheels in hyper silver 17x8 et 35
the first scoob with these on as far as i know .
running 215,45,17 toyo px4s .
the arches will need to be rolled next week and camber set up but they have minimal rubbing as they are now even with 2 people in the back
they are available from me at RTS only in hyper silver 5x100 or gunmetal 5x114.3
hope you like

very smart mate! If I'd have known you were a rota dealer I'd have got my boosts from you. I was after 17x8's but I ended up buying 17x7.5's as I couldn't find them anywhere..

cheers guys
18s would have been to big , im using this as a van/workhorse so i need to put stuff in the back (wheels etc) so 18s would cause rubbing and comfort issues
17s with the 45 profile gives you a nice ride and it can be still thrown about if needed
they do clear brembos to which will be my next adition
