Think 18"s only come as "Boost drift"

To M444GY,

Do they do the Rota Grid Drift in 17x7.5 for a classic (or another size for a classic)

Thanks

Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2. You will be left with plenty of change, they are good and strong wheels and TD manufactures the GT1 wheel for Prodrive
Got mine from MerlinInternational and Derek has been very helpful.

I have a set of Rota Grids in 18 x 8 I believe in white. Nice condition.

Ive just bought a set of rota grid drifts for my spec c so the grids will be coming off tomorrow.

I can get pics tomorrow if your interested.

Oh and 5 x 100

Cheers
