as stated in the title, i was looking for opinions on the durability of the rota p45r rims for an evo. i use my car strictly as a daily driver for now,and it is totally, and sadly, BONE stock. i was looking into different rims and the p45r rims look very durable and the styling is nice, not to mention a good price. i searched and did some research, but i would like some real world experience from my fellow evo m members.

i have found out that:
1. they are made in the phillipines(lol)
2. most people say they won't buy them because they are knockoffs ( bee-r b5 rims are discontinued as far as i know).
3. honda people love rotas.(lol).

i just want to see if they are durable for daily driving duty. no tracking. and if they would fit on a bone stock setup. (05 gsr). im thinking of staying with 17" rims and stock ones are insanely expensive. any experiences would be appreciated.

 

There is a whole post established to the P45Rs. Look in the show and shine section. BTW I have these rims and love them.

 

thanks, i will read the thread again. i did read it but 7 pages in, and it was turning into a big argument of cheap knockoff vs. them hiring a design team vs. i wouldn't put these on my car because honda kids love them. not really too much about durability or how they last. thank you all. uh, end thread i guess.

 

Rota Wheels are very durable and the Rota P45R is commonly used in motor sport applications. We have tons of Evo and 350Z customers running these wheels with no issues at all, it's definitely a proven wheel.

Quote from GST Owner/Tuner Mike Warfield

"We have smashed burms, jumped the car and done all things brutal we can and we have never hurt a Rota rim ever.

For sure the best wheel for the $ and strong as hell.
