mune237 Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Just curious..... a few folks saying "do not do Rotiforms" but they don't elaborate. Why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(n)A-GAME Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Agreed. If you have the cash for this, do it if you like these wheels. Posting a pic of a wheel off a car=it's hella easy for everybody to hate on it, not to say I don't disagree, but I do think thes could look hot as fawk on a new s60 For the same price he can get the Forgestars from VIVA which look similar. I'd take those in a heartbeat before Rotiforms go anywhere near my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gideon35T Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Cheapest set of those wheels would be $2,800 ... I'm guessing 18's or 19's would be at least $5,000 ... For a wheel style that is all over the place in every single automotive group around short of offroaders ... Go for it ... ... ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusheR Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 I'd say go for it ! Allways loved SJC ,and they are not as played out as BLQ or NUE. Plus in our little Volvo world nobody have Rotiforms, unlike mentioned Forgestars. Of course you can buy some nice used wheels for much less, but then you have to redrill, refinish or rebuild. And with biult to order Rotis -just slap them on and enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikie Posted April 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Are you aware of the pricing on those wheels? They're gorgeous, I'd love to own a set but the price tag kills me. I had a friend that wanted to get them in 17x9 17x10 Evo 7 fitment... they wanted like $4200. Totally custom built and beautiful. I'd love to see them on a new Volvo with the right suspension setup, but they're pretty expensive, just incase you didn't know. yeah im aware of the price but... i didn't even contact them yet for price lol i love the nue's so clean and simple. prefer the volution v's! Too expensive, not DOT Certified, kind of overplayed. I would either stick with your Volutions (they're rare, not many people have them) or go for something else. i think i will need 19's, I find 18's look small on the S60, silver or titan? If you plan to drop that kind of money go with something from HRE, much better looking wheels imo. aren't they even more expensive? I saw one that i liked from the vintage series and had trouble even finding the price... that's must be bad news lol Never ask for approval before doing something to YOUR car. 9.75 people out of 10 would have told me to paint my wheels anything other than black had I asked before just doing it. In my opinion, just do it first and welcome the C&Cs later. Not really asking for approval, more for feedback especially on a product that i am not really well informed about. Shouldn't have gone black, too. Just sayin'. i'm still not 100% on the color lol too late now! why though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikie Posted April 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 I really like that deep dish look but I think it's all about fitment and might be tough with the new S60 since I've found only 30mm lowering springs that are so far offered. Classic 5 spokes might be best (volution v's) plus i will most probably do quite a few Heico products once again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookforjoe Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Look at how deep it is from wheel inner lip to outside of spoke area - way to clunky for that much $$$$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exexpat Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 The cast wheels are cheap. If you like them, get those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmartinlsmith Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 The cast wheels are cheap. Relatively speaking. they are fairly inexpensive close to the spec's needed to run on a fwd VOLVO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacrifice Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 If I HAD to pick up a set of rotiforms,within a reasonable budget, I wouldn't mind a set of NUEs. They are definitely a clean design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVL WAGN Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 For the price of those Rotos...snag a set of Volks and get the motorsport tech adapters and call it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadianplat855 Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 People (like me) will laugh at you for saying you have a new S60 "Level 1". There is no such thing. In Canada (Where the owner lives) there is such a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
