Rota Torque Opinions and Pictures
Post by G-lude » Tue Mar 03, 2015 7:47 pm
Hey Guys,
Wanted peoples input on the Rota Torques, and if anyone owns a set,
Probably sounds stupid but I have a set of Motegi rims, which I could refurb in a nice gunmetal or bronze for a lot less than buying a set of these. Is it just me or are they too similar to the Motegi rims to warrant the extra money?
I've got to say the Torque drifts look much better but without rolling my arches etc am I just gunna have fitment issues?
The other simpler look would be to go for Matt Black Slips to bring out my red calipers, and they do look nice on a Black lude..

I'd rather have a nice set of refurbished OEM wheels than fakes wheels to be honest.

You can get 2nd hand Work Emotion CR Kai for the same price as brand new torques however the torques are way lighter and the forged CR kais are expensive.
I personally like them and offer excellent value for money.
But since my car have become a no compromise on cost id go for genuine original.

Nothing wrong with Rotas.
To be honest, sometimes I feel that they are perfect for our cars. As you wouldn't fork out a small fortune for a car that probably costs less then the wheels. Rotas are good choice, lighter and also cheap.
I had them on my Type-S, extremely light and with the correct tyre they were awesome.
