Anybody interested in getting Rota Boost, in 17x7.5 (or 8"), gold, +35 offset? - SRT Forums

SpecV · 06-09-2008, 01:24 PM

I also spoke with SubyDude and he told me the same thing he told the other guy that posted about Rota's. If we can get 4 people to go in together on these wheels. Has to be same color, same size, same offset, we can get them special ordered. I'm really wanting to get these.

After speaking to Dan, at Subydude here's the scoop. $200 non-refundable deposit up front, and they would take 2-3 months to arrive to you. His number is 510-651-2965 of you want to verify this is legit. Here is our conversation from today:

SpecVDriver2 (2:46:29 PM): Can you shoot me a price on Rota Boost, gold, 18x8, 5x100 with +38 offset? Shipped to 40165
DaSubyDude (2:48:44 PM): Hi
DaSubyDude (2:48:49 PM): Rota Boost does not come in 18x8
DaSubyDude (2:48:56 PM): is this size being advertised somewhere?
DaSubyDude (2:49:09 PM): Haha I actually have got a few people asking about it lately
SpecVDriver2 (2:49:10 PM): No, just the size I'm wanting.
DaSubyDude (2:49:13 PM): ah
SpecVDriver2 (2:49:19 PM): for the SRT 4?
DaSubyDude (2:49:20 PM): yea in 18" the smallest size is 18x9
DaSubyDude (2:49:25 PM): all cars
SpecVDriver2 (2:49:37 PM): OK, well what about 17"?
SpecVDriver2 (2:50:11 PM): either 7.5 or 8"
SpecVDriver2 (2:51:21 PM): I'm going off this link if you can get it to work The WHEEL & TIRE TECH Thread
SpecVDriver2 (2:57:23 PM): looking at Rota's website it looks like it comes in both 7.5 and 8" with +35 offset and both +48 and +48 in 7.5"
SpecVDriver2 (2:57:31 PM): +45 and +48 I meant
DaSubyDude (2:59:00 PM): yea we do a lot of special orders for srt 4's
DaSubyDude (2:59:10 PM): we have the boost in stock right now
DaSubyDude (2:59:13 PM): 17x8 5x100 +35
SpecVDriver2 (2:59:16 PM): gold?
DaSubyDude (2:59:18 PM): i believe there is one set left in gun metallic
DaSubyDude (2:59:21 PM): no gold
SpecVDriver2 (2:59:27 PM): sorry, gotta be gold
SpecVDriver2 (2:59:39 PM): can you get them?
DaSubyDude (3:00:19 PM): I have 17x8 5x100 +48 in gold, you would need spacers
DaSubyDude (3:00:32 PM): if you want them in the +35 that we order for srt4 I would need a few more people interested
SpecVDriver2 (3:00:40 PM): Do most guys run +35 on the SRT's
SpecVDriver2 (3:01:10 PM): how much would those +48 offset run me?
DaSubyDude (3:02:12 PM): yes most run +35
DaSubyDude (3:02:20 PM): the 17x8 +48 is $700 shipped
SpecVDriver2 (3:03:01 PM): correct me if I'm wrong but +48 would put the wheel closer in the the hub and that's why I would need spacers right?
DaSubyDude (3:04:54 PM): correct
DaSubyDude (3:05:01 PM): you will have to space it away from the inside
SpecVDriver2 (3:05:22 PM): ok, that's what I thought. I think those are only like $15 or so from tirerack, unless you sell them
SpecVDriver2 (3:06:06 PM): so if I wanted to do say 17x7.5 in +35 in gold How many more people would I need to purchase them with me?
DaSubyDude (3:10:44 PM): ohh i also have
DaSubyDude (3:10:49 PM): 17x7.5 5x100 +45 gold in stock now
DaSubyDude (3:11:03 PM): would need a small 5mm spacer, they are $10 each and we have them in stock also
SpecVDriver2 (3:11:09 PM): $700 as well?
DaSubyDude (3:11:17 PM): $650 for the wheels, $690 shipped with spacers
SpecVDriver2 (3:11:46 PM): I'm kinda iffy about spacers. Would rather just run a +35 or +35 and not have to use them honestly
SpecVDriver2 (3:11:56 PM): 35 or 38, sorry
DaSubyDude (3:12:04 PM): k
DaSubyDude (3:12:15 PM): I would need 3 other people wanting the same specs and color
SpecVDriver2 (3:13:09 PM): Ok, I'll make a post on SRTForums and see if anybody would be interested. So with 4 people (including myself) what would the price be on 17x7.5 with +35 or +38 offset?
DaSubyDude (3:13:44 PM): $650 shipped within the lower 48 states (CA add sales tax, HI/AK and international are extra)
DaSubyDude (3:13:59 PM): $200 non refundable deposit up front once we get 4 total people
DaSubyDude (3:14:05 PM): wheels will take 2-3 months to arrive from time ordered
SpecVDriver2 (3:14:13 PM): OK, so if I can get those people would I just hit you up on here?
DaSubyDude (3:15:05 PM): yes
DaSubyDude (3:15:22 PM): AIM is an easy way to contact me or call me in the shop at 510-651-2956 and ask for Dan
SpecVDriver2 (3:15:27 PM): OK, let me see what I can work out and I'll IM you when/if I can get enough
SpecVDriver2 (3:15:33 PM): OK, thanks Dan
DaSubyDude (3:17:21 PM): sounds good
Sorry for the long post, just wanted to cover the basics. PM, me or call Dan if you're interested in doing this. Here's a pic of the wheels:

The price is $650 shipped to the lower 48 states in case you missed it in the IM conversation.

Seems like we have a few guys interested already. Might wanna hold off on those

8krdlne · 06-10-2008, 04:13 PM

if you will be ordering in the next week or two let me know. I'm either going go get a set of these or the fn01rc's but I'm looking for a set asap

Even if we order them now, it'll be 2-3 months before we get them. This will be a special order item.

Epic · 06-12-2008, 12:58 AM

I also had some people interested, but no one came through

Toofpaste39 · 06-12-2008, 01:28 AM

This is only for the Rota Boost?

Nelson · 06-12-2008, 01:52 AM

I like the black with rid lip idea for sure.

Yes, that's how they do special orders such as the Boost in our bolt pattern with this offset.

Toofpaste39 · 06-12-2008, 07:03 AM

I already have a set that looks similar to the Boost in bronze, hence the reason why I asked.

I like the Full Sports Bronze (or whatever it's called) to but I just want Gold. I think it would look sick on a red SRT. Plus, I want something different that nobody else has put on a SRT. I would just order a set for myself but they won't special order without atleast 4 sets.

PM, me guys if you're interested in purchasing. I have several guys posting but I don't have a definite number yet.

Hmm.. I hella forgot that the Rota HQ, or at least the American HQ, was like right down the street from me here in California! Saw the guys phone number and realized it was the same area code....
