Default Are these Rota's? Wheel ID please.

Anyone know if these are Rota's? The site they are on just has them labled as 'Super Mesh.' Anyone seen these before? The whole look of the wheel looks like any other Rota i have seen with the polished lip and painted face. If someone knows what they are i would love to know more about them (weight).

These are being offered in 15x7 and 16x7...

The (17") Formel's also have 10 pairs of spokes, while the Supermesh have 9 pairs and have the polished lip.

So its safe to say these are the same 'cookie cutter' rotas that are similar in construction to gt3's, curcuit 10/8, grid's, slipstreams with the polished lip? so they should weigh around 14-15lbs of the 16x7?

I was planning on ordering a set of 16x7 gold or black face gt3's, but i think I;m liking these better. Anyone know anyone or seen any pics of cars with these wheels mounted?


Can someone please do a chop with these wheels on my car to see what 16's would look like in the gold and then black? Sorry I have no skills and the only thing i have to mess with pics is MS paint. :no:

yup, thats where i saw them. Their almost out of stock too. I hope what ever company makes them decides to mass produce them. Design itself is classic and i would much rather have these then GT3's.
