WTB: Rota Gravels

Long shot I know, but if anyone has some second hand Rota Gravels in gunmetal or hyperblack that they wish to sell, then we may be able to do business.

do they use the same photo for the rims in their link :?:

cos I can't see any diff between Gunmetal and HyperBlack :!:

which of the two is darker?

sorry if this is off topic....but I reckon they are a good wheel at a good price, too.

go for it, Blues.

A saving of $200 means $200 can be spent elsewhere. It makes financial sense :D

there's a set on ebay in Sydney at the moment. Off a rex apparently. A search for Rota and Wrx (used) should find the listing for you

they are pretty much never up for sale, and as such you can charge as close to 999 as you want. i bought mine last year. buy them new... they will be in perfect condition

gunmetal looks the business on a black car and better than hyperblack in my opinion.

also, be careful, the ones off the first shipment are 18x8, and the new ones in stock are 18x8.5.

Hyperblack looks good IMO... Although they reside on the wife's silver Impreza now...

gunmetal looks good to i think.

I have been told you need to get the arches rolled with 8.5" i got the 8" ones, car is lowered approx 40mm and front tyres rub on arch liner on full locks

This picture gives a good comparison, let to right: Gun Metallic, Hyper Black, Hyper Silver
