Default HAN...Need your opinion on Rota's..Please Vote!!

Alright, I've thought about getting my stock fat fives powder coated and someone mentioned rota's. So I looked them up and decided they are a better fit for me. Now i'm stuck between two styles. The "slipstreams" and the "circuit 8". I've slapped together another poor quality photoshop for you to get a picture of them side by side.

Let me know your opinions

15" rota slipstreams in black on the rear

or

15" rota circuit 8 in gunmetal in the front



or stick with stock

How much are you willing to spend for a different look for your car?

If you do decide to get a set of Rota's, you'll probably have to spend about 5 or 6 hundred bucks to get them to you with tires (don't quote me on the amount, I'm just shooting in the dark). You'll enjoy the benefit of having a different look for you car as well as having another set of wheels to use in case you need it or sell them to offset the cost of the Rota's.

If you powdercoat the GSR's, you'd have to spend on the tire removal, the powdercoat, then the cost to mount and balance of the tires again. Plus you'd need another set to put on the car while your GSR wheels are at the shop. I don't know how much that'll cost you, but it might be near the cost of new wheels and tires.

For my personal taste, I'd go for either the C10's or the Torque's

If you stick with stock, move the weights to the inside of the wheel so you can't see them.

C8's look the best to me. The one's that you photoshoped on look a bit bigger than 15".

I'm pretty sure he didn't care about the size of the wheels in the chop...just what they looked like on the car
