ROTA Wheels Are They Okay?

[CamaroZ28]

Gentlemen,

Have anyone here used ROTA wheels? Is it good and reliable? No "bengkong"?

I am planning to purchase this ROTA Wheel's Motorsports Series BATTLE 18 x 7.5 +45 4h/5h x 100/114.3 for my old ride but still reliable black Honda Accord EXI 1994.

Where can I buy reasonably priced tires too. Yung hindi "taga" ang price.

I am in Makati area.

can we move this to the More Than Looks section? i think it is more appropriate topic for aesthetics.

anyways, Rota's have a pretty good quality. it is a popular choice in US.

I'm currently on Rota Battle's but on 15's only. Very good quality for it's price, can't complain. I got my Battle's 4 years ago at DKC tires at P. Tuazon near Ali Mall.

One of our aritst here in my workplace has a mid-90's Accord that are on Rota Battle's too, I don't know the size but it's definitely bigger than 15's, ganda ang malaking Battle's sa old Accords.

from what i've heard, ROTA mags can be repaired locally.

Sir,

Pakilipat na lang po sa More Than Looks section.

Thank you.

ROTAs are being exported world wide... so quality is pretty good.

Checkout rotawheels.com for their complete line.

ask lang po . . . .

ano po yung staggered? pa explain naman po at kung anu/para saan yun? tnx po

[ssaloon]

staggered means iba yung wheel width sa harap compared sa likod or vice versa.

it's primarily for better traction depending on your car's drivetrain, whether FWD or RWD.

OK naman ang Rota mags. In fact, most of the OEM mags are Rota. Tanong ko lang. I also drive a '94 Accord EXi pero 4h x 114.3 yung stock nun. Pinapalitan mo ba yung sa yo to 5h? Also, if you plan on getting 18's, mga 40-series na yung goma mo. Baba na nun. Used to have 205/40-17's on my previous car (a '92 Corolla GLi). Madaling magasgas. Ingat na ingat ka when parallel-parking.
Yung sa Accord ko ngayon, pinalitan ko ng Rota Destiny 17's pero 215/50 yung goma. Medyo makapal pa rin yung sidewall so hindi madaling magasgas. OK pa yung ride. Di masyadong nabago from stock.

Gentlemen,

Very good. Very reliable. Gotten expensive over the years, but is still cheaper than other non-local brands. in my experience, mas prone to bengkong ang mga imported brands kesa sa Rota.

Where can I buy these tires. Yung hindi "taga" ang price.

I am in Makati area.

In my opinion, any wheel, whatever brand, with that little rubber (you'll need 30 or 35 series tires to make it fit) is in danger on Philippine roads... unless you drive like my Aunt, who deserves the "Most Defensive Driver" Award. (one time, she dropped us off at an intersection... we wait five minutes for a jeep, got on, and we passed her just two minutes later... )

But ROTA's are fairly strong and dependable. The only time I managed to "bengkong" one was over a six-inch deep sharp-edged pothole at 120 km/h while carrying a 200 kg cargo in the trunk.

And also anung magandang center cap for that?

IMO if you can find a center cap that has your car's logo on it, much better.

Me, I'm looking for one with the Mitsu 3-diamond logo in silver color.

Last time I was at DKC tires (that a couple of years back) there was one who bought a center cap for his wheels, dunno if DKC still sells them though.

mayroon ba kahit konti discount kung sa ROTA bicutan ka bibili compare sa mga authorized dealers nila sa Banaue at Evangelista?

Yesterday, I called one shop in Makati, just to check if they have this kind of wheels and in case, how much it costs.

They told me that its not available and they need to call Rota Bicutan to check the availability and its price too.

It seems that it will cost lesser if we buy directly from the manufacturer since they allow it.

This gentleman Mr.Tony of Rota Bicutan is giving me a discount if I am going to purchase directly from them.

I am already thinking........ 17 or 18?

I might postpone it till next week, after Christmas. Dami gastos kasi.... And I just went today to Cruven at Camp Crame to have my car repaired.....

Next week na nga lang.......

Bro, magkano yung Battle? Kasi, matagal ko nang gustong bilhin ito, ngayon lang nagka-budget? Pwede ba trade-in dun sa Bicutan? 15" lang sa akin, swap ko sana dun sa stock VTi-S Accord mags (slanted star design).
