Well, with the awesome success of the Rota RB program for the '02, we've decided to take on another design. Many will know the original.

As with the RB, this new wheel will be made for the '02.

Specs are:

6x15
4:100
57.1 center bore
offset 29
color silver

A special feature will be that the lug nut area under the center cap will be painted flat black. This will facilitate 2 styles of center caps. Both styles of caps will be INCLUDED with each wheel. Along with the caps, 2 styles of lug nuts will also be included to accomodate your choice of caps. Heck, you'll be able to change the look of the wheel with minimal work.

This new wheel design is sure to compliment the '02.

Both styles of caps will fit the factory BMW center logo.

The initial order from Rota will be 25 sets. We are looking at the latter part of spring for the order to fill.

Prices will be $899.00usd plus freight. FOB Pleasanton CA. CA residents will be charged 8.75% tax. We take Paypal, Visa and MC. Please e-mail me to pre-order your set.

DEPOSITS WILL BE REQUIRED ONCE I GET A FIRM DELIVERY DATE ON THE WHEELS.

You can contact me with any questions at 800.656.1118. My e-mail is cpadagasjr at yahoo dot com.

Thank you FAQ'ers and Steve Kupper for the success of the RB program.

Yes, you will be able to have the classic exposed lug look or the later style with covered lugs.

Thanks for the compliments guys!

CJ, So will these fit a lowered car without any rubbing issues? Also, would we need spacers for these or is the offset good the way it is? I'm bad about what offset is correct and what not so I apologize in advance for the silly questions.

Yes, this will work with a lowered '02. I went with a 6" wide wheel with a little more backspacing to get the wheel further away from the fender.

I'm sure it will cost a lot, but do you have a way of sending them to Australia and if so would you know roughly how much they would cost to send.

Also, do you have pics of them on a car without the centre caps and in 15's, they just seem really big. And finally what sort of rubber would go on these, my car will have fresh paint and i know the et is right but i don't want any rubbing.

thanks for any help.

We can send them USPS. We can give you tracking info as well. It's really not that bad as far as cost. I don't have an exact price. I'll have to wait 'til I have the wheels so I can weigh them. We double box all wheels so they get there in good shape. Drop me an e-mail if you're interested.

As for tire size, 195/50 will work without issue.

No pics of the open cap wheel on a car yet.

Yes, it is possible. The last set(4 wheels) of wheels we sent USPS cost about $180.00usd. It took about 2 weeks to arrive.

Both wheels will fit the '02 Touring.

Thanks- Cris
