I’m looking at the Rota Slipstream 16X7 or X8 I occasionally go off road are these a strong wheel? I’m not expecting a rally wheel just something I won’t bend too easy. My 18” Aerospeeds are beat to ****. Should I go with the 7 or 8? Any info about the wheel would be cool.
Thanks

 

does this answer the question enough?





i never had any problems running them off road

 

If you're concerned about it, there are much stronger wheels to be had, but you still shoudln't have any problems. The line between a force that breaks a Rota Slipstream and, say, a Prodrive P1 is pretty slim. If you break one you'd probably break another. Just don't go bombing down bad roads like you're Colin McRae and you'll be fine.

 

Wow!!! thanks guys you both made up my mind.
Industrial Disease? Is it terminal?

 

Very! Find the Dire Straits song called Industrial Disease. Good British quasi-politcal sattire.

 

Rock-on, Rock-on

 

16x7's are pretty much not availible anymore.

We do have a bunch of 16x8 in stock though.

Zeob!

Do you have any grids in the size?

 

only 17x7.5 unfortuantly.

 

Damn.

But Kim ask me to send an email to them next week for an update.

So I will see if I can get them in 16x8.

That would be great.

Then I can run 225/45/16 on my GC8. Cannot wait.

 

Who makes a 225/45R16 tire?

 

u can get ziex 512's, ecsta 712's, or es100's.

So pretty much no good tires in that size

 

JDM tires like bridgestone and Toyo Proxes R888.

You're not breaking his heart unless he moves to Japan.

 

The R888 is sold in Aus, UK and so on.

The Bridgestone is different. All in Japan.
