I search and found a few pics of Mikeluvs8's RX8 with his Rota D2's and canaryrx8's RX8's Work Meister S1's. Does anyone else have pictures of RX8s with Rota D2s, SSR Professor SP-1's, or Work Meister S1's?

example:

Mikeluvs8




Canaryrx8





Edit: SSR Professor SP-1's on a few members RX8s. scsi, thanks for mentioning them.

 

I dont have any pics for you. But Mikeluvs8 looks amazing!

 

are those the gunmetal D2's? i don't see any gloss black available on their website.

 

I'm pretty sure those D2's are black. My neighbor just got new Rota D2's in black with polished lip for his AP2 S2000 (they look great on the S2000 and reminded me of Mikeluv8s' rx8). AutoRnD (they're in the vendors section) also sold D2's in black with polished lip for the RX7 over at rx7club.

I checked Rota's website for the D2's and also noticed the gunmetal finish instead of "gloss black". I hope they didn't discontinue them.

 

Are these Work Meister?


From the super autobacs thread:

thanks!!!

 

my d2's are gloss black.

 

those are works, they have that color in the d2's also.

 

just fyi, the Rota D2's are actually replicas of the SSR Professors

 

^ Ahhh... I forgot about the SP-1's. Thanks for mentioning that! I'll update the thread title.


edit: The Rota D2 black is called Royal Black btw.

 

so is the ssr's a replica of the work wheels? or is the work wheels a replica of that old school porsche wheel?
who makes the actual original wheel?

 

mikes 8 is verrry nice, hes gettin sum ruspec up in hurr! lol

 

4 different bands

 

i dont understand why people like these wheels?

 

whats wrong with them? why do you like your wheels?

 

I think they are a classic design! I was sooo tempted when tire rack was clearing out those professor SP1's. They looked similar to the Meisters but i dont think they had a stepped lip.

But my only stipulation for these wheels will have to be low offset and an agressive lip for them to really stand out.

 

What kind of question is that?...


Mikeluvs8, what is the brand and model in the last pic? The center cap is somewhat busy IMO but the wheel itself looks nice overall.

 

its raveann but i dont know if it is still avalible.

 

You forgot one. Enkei also makes a replica of these. They are the RP03 Type RC. Here is a pic:

how do they do against da wall??????


beers

 

the raveanns are very cheap replicas from what i hear.

the SSR and works and enkeis are all slightly different and enough so to be considered their own. the rota d2 and the raveanns are direct copies of the SSR profs

 

they all have there differences, if you dont know the difference the rota d2's spokes are more curved than all the others the ssr's are straight spokes. and if they were direct copies shouldnt they have been sued already???

 

im still waiting on the other guy to do the crash test.

 

i love the look of the d2's. Also for everyone that says rota's suck they don't. Yes they are replica's and they might not be made AS strong but they are still a GREAT wheel. ive had 5 sets of rota's and never ran into any problems. so i say +1 for the d2's!! =]

 

Why worrie about wheels after you hit a wall??? lol
