This is purely an interest gauge. 10 sets of 4 wheels would need to be sold (10 people, 4 wheels each). They are called Rota Attack's and only weigh 17lbs. The two colors available are black with a silver polished lip or the entire wheel steel grey. I'm not positive but I do believe the offset would be 45mm and are 17x7.5. Prices are not certain yet but I would expect somewhere close to $150 each. Here is a link to a picture of them on 1314's car in black with the silver lip PIC. They can also be viewed at ZXTuner . So, any interest?

But the price is $148.75 on the site you just linked. Shouldnt a Group Buy constitute lower prices? You are talking about the 17" 17pd Rotas, right?

The prices are not final yet and the only way those wheels can be purchased is through a special order in which a minimum number of wheels must be purchased. The $150 is not at all certain yet but rather an approximate figure. And in the first post I also indicated (in answer to your question) that the wheels weigh 17lbs and measure 17" in diameter and 7.5" in width.

I am looking for wheels that are Black with a polish lip.
The ROTA Attacks are interesting, but I'm, looking for a Tire/Wheel offer.
The Wheels don't do me any good if they don't have any rubber on them...

Alrighty I got all of the info back about this group buy from Rob at ZXTuner, so here it is...

Group Buy Info:

- 7 sets of wheels need to be sold, 6 besides me (Rob keeps 12 wheels for ZXTuner)
- price for 4 wheels is $595 ($30 for shipping to CA, $60 in the lower 48 states, special quotes necessary for Canada, Hawaii, and Alaska)
- Time frame would be 8 weeks from the time we send all of the money in (they need to custom drill the wheels)
- Also, all of the wheels must be ONE color, I am guessing the most popular will be black with a silver polished lip

Wheel Info:

- Size: 17x7.5
- Weight: approx. 17lbs
- Color: black with a silver lip

There is no rush on this group buy, these are simply the requirements and information about it. I would love to get a set of these wheels as I imagine others on this forum would too, however I understand there have been quite a few group buys recently and people are broke as [censored]. So when there are 6 people (besides myself) who have the money and wish to purchase these wheels, this group buy will go down. Remember, if anyone wants to see these wheels on a contour, look for pictures 1314's car (black svt with 17" black w/ silver lip rota attacks).

I don't want to sound mean or anything, but how is this a group buy special deal if it's the same exact price as the website?

Agh! Jeez, sorry I completely forgot to explain. These wheels are NOT available unless they are ordered in a group buy fashion. Although the ZXTuner website has them listed and priced, they are not actually available (not in stock) and will not be available unless a group buy is started (they won't stock them unless a certain amount are ordered). So the point of this group buy is not to get the wheels at a lower price, but to be able to get the wheels at all (which no one can at this point). Sorry everyone, I forgot to explain that.
