I just got my rota grids on 17x9.5 and 17x9 and one of the front wheels is wobbling and bouncing/jumping when I'm driving it
>>
You need to properly tighten it. Chances are the bore of the wheel and hub on your car are different
You need hubcentric rings
/thread
>>
When I had rotas on my wrx I needed new lug nuts. You might need "tuner" lug nuts because the part that goes up against the wheel comes in different angles.

Cheaply cast reproduction wheels being used as if they were forged track wheels

Stop pretending to be a car enthusiast and buy a camry.

You will only lose interest in pretending you are a car person when you hit around 30 anyway.

"I love cars but I have resposibilties is what you will say"

Fucking rota, faggots not even real car enthusiast, fuck off!
>>
>>14988980
so if they were used for just daily driving, they wouldn't get utterly obliterated by a pot hole?
>>
>>14988620
Better than the shit house rotas you bought.
>>
>>14988639
You have the wrong wheel nuts you idiotic rota faggot

>>14988945
OH NO IT'S NOT LIKE EVERY WHEEL IN THE WORLD HAS TO BE FUCKING BALANCED RIGHT RETARD?

Fucking mouth breather.

>>14988525
Balance your fucking wheels retard
>>
>>14988995
Probably not, the vast majority of wheels on cars are cast alloy or pressed steel so they hold up great 99% of the time

When you go to $400 a set reproduction wheels, you're looking at very cheap alloys, made cheaply, in a cheap chinese factory, with cheap tools, by underpayed, unskilled workers.

You do realise there are different qualities of casting?

Some cast wheels are better made then others.
>>
>>14989016
but wouldn't the 6 spoke wheel be somewhat more sturdy than an 8 spoke one? i always thought the more spokes plus the increased thinness per added spoke, the weaker a wheel gets (only applying this to wheels with evenly spaced, straight spokes).
>>
>>14988535
I've ran wheels with rings, and without and never noticed a difference, or had any wobble. acorn or shank style lug nuts do a good job centering it.
>>
>>14988970
running ultra low profile tires possibly?
>>
>>14989275
In some cases you will be fine without rings, in others where the hub is significantly bigger it will shake.
>>
>>14989016
You do realise it's very hard to get any job in the phillipines without qualifications as the country is so over populated?

Taxi and Jeepney drivers are the only jobs unqualified Filipinos do and usually only because a family member felt sorry for them and bought them a vehicle in order to earn some money.
