They are 15" Rota J-Mags.
I am going to use them as my Racing wheels for Autocross and Roadracing this year. They are wrapped in 205/50/15 Kumho V710s.

To be honest, I actually like them. I have seen them before but they never looked good. They look great. What are the specs on them? How much do they wiegh?

That blue is sick!
Thats the way i think race rims should look like. Like around the blue is a wide part of silver, then the blue is alot smaller. Just looks awsome in my opinion.
nice wheels bro.

I was trying to think of a car that looks simular to those and finally remembered right after i posted the above. You ever seen the civic they always put in mags with the red rims? thats what your car reminds me of.

They are 15x7 inch wheels, so they will be just fine for everyday use.
LOL @ the wheel gap remark... The rear is high, but it doesnt bother me as much as it used to.

Need to be black IMO. Looks good, but stands out too much for me.

i usually don't like jmags, but i guess thats cause all the ones i've seen around have just been silver
personally i like the blue alot goes well with the black
whats the offset? usually rotas have too much, but those fit nicely, any spacers?

If I saw those in a rag or in the store, I would just keep on going, but damn, they look sweet on your ride. I agree though with a previous post, while that blue is sick, I would love it more in black.

haha- thanks.
Truth be told, Its really a cheap trick to get those photographers at the track/autocross to take pics of my car while I am on track. "Hey, WTF is that thing with Blue wheels? Let me take a pic!"
Well, that, and they match my engine bay.
