I prefer no caps over Rota caps. Rota caps suck

I'm assuming you've seen the car in person? There's no way I could tell for sure there wasn't a centering ring in there by any of the pictures.

Its been a while, but I think I used x2 white, x4 blaze blue, x2 pearlizer.

Now its black and I used x4 matte black, x2 glossifier.

Looks sweet man. I think this style of wheel is one of the few that suits the car. What's the weight on these guys? I imagine much cheaper price tag than the RS.

It would be nice if we had a 5x100 RS-D maybe Rota will release a version for us
