Rota Alloys on a Classic, where are your pics??
 
Am planning what to do with my car long term, and like the Rota Drift Alloy but in 17inch (Width to be decided), but ideally just to fit the arches.

Anyone got any pics of their classic with a set of Rota wheels, what size ET and rim width (tyre size), also what modifications were needed to fit.

Thanks in Advance.

Had a little photoshop and this is kind of what I want to finish with.

Just wheels, rear tints, and a sprayjob to do then.

please state the ET of the rims and the tyre size

Am seriously liking the pics guys.
I`m leaning towards Rota Grid Drifts, but I`ve no idea what size etc to go for that won`t cause rubbage issues or arches to be seriously trimmed.

Sorry to be vague, but im not at home to check

The old 17 boosts were 205/45/17's as I have found the old ebay advert for it, but et unknowm. I would hazard a guess at 48s

The new 18's arent drifts as previously stated (DOH) they are Black GRA's with toyo 215's. I think the et is 50, but I could stand corrected.

If you can PM me your email address, I have some old photos on my phone, they arent the best but it will give you a ballpark idea.

I have no way of getting them from my phone to the forum at the moment. Sorry.

No need for the photo mate. thanks for clarifying this!
I'm in search for rims and can't make up my mind between 17" - 18" and width. The rims must also clear the gold brembo brakes...

I changed my 18's to 17's as the ride was spoiled
