The website is now live at www.kaihatsu.co.za

First container load shipping in April, all orders to be in by 15th March 2011

Right I've done pricing up on wheels and I'm ready to get started on supplying you guys with some proper wheels.

Please let anyone you know come over to this thread to get their wheel orders in, share it accross forums and put it on your facebook! The quicker I get the orders, the quicker you can get your wheels at affordable rates.

The full catalogue can be viewed here:
www.kaihatsu.co.za

Rota Wheels has to survive a series of tests. Impact tests, Cornering fatigue tests, Drum tests, Coordinating tests and an acid test on the track.

In all these, Rota delivers. These wheels are a product of 25 years of manufacturing experience--experience that is continually boosted and enhanced by our alliances with European and Japanese technological partners.

If you are prepared to wait for me to gather enough orders to get the wheels shipped on a container, I can cut the shipping costs by up to 2/3rd's! In order to do this, let me know and I will add your name to a list.
I will take deposits from those prepared to wait for the container.

If you have any questions, just ask.

Here is a handy offset calculator you can use to help you choose the right sizes for your car:

i'm very very keen guys, just want some more info.

http://www.rotawheels.com/wheels.asp?wheelid=70

are these black/gunmetal? with polished lip?

Will they be staggered if i buy the 9.5J and 10J?

are there any others with a five spoke 18" 9-10.5J +35 offset?

It's for a Supra!

You can also email me at tonydorner at gmail dot com

Hi Mr T

Yes we can do staggered offset, all you have to do is take the indivdual wheel prices and add them up.

Those wheel are amazing wheels and all I can say is good choice! I'm looking at getting the red anodized ones myself when my S14 goes black in the future.

The wheels are available in gunmetal with polished lip, here they are:

They are available in many other finishes such as white, pink, silver, anodized blue and anodized red.

The price for the staggered size you are after with those wheels is on www.kaihatsu.co.za

There are many wheels available in the style and size you want, just have a browse in that catalogue and if you find something you like, just ask and I will tell you if it's available.

Let me know if you would like to place an order or have any questions

Hopefully as soon as possible, as soon as I have my online store up and ready I will be promoting it as much as possible. Spread the word, it helps!

I will post on here when the site is ready and hopefully I will start taking orders. I will need a fair few orders of full sets to make it worth going for a container.

A container will take 100 sets of 18" wheels, so that would be ideal. But to make the cost of shipping around a third of the estimate I will probably need about 50 sets to be ordered.

If you can do good prices on individual sets sent from the UK to an address in SA, let me know! My aim in this is to take little profit and make this all as affordable as possible. We need these wheels in SA!
