Info on Rota Shakotan

[90blue]

So while the refinish is on hold for the Panasports I was thinking of these Shakotans.



But, I am not a big fan of the stretched and pulled look to accommodate zero offsets.
Now admittedly the appeal for me comes from the large lip, but I am wondering, as I have not seen these in person, if a 15x7 with 15 offset will:
1. they fit without a roll and stretch
and
2. will it give a similar dished effect to a 15x9 zero without the roll and pull. Just don't want to go there.

These will be going on the '97 Black that I recently acquired.

Thanks

ET15 slight roll on 15x8 is actually perfect. i was running 205/50/15 on that setup

So then 15x7 would be without the need for a roll ?

My experience is that the rears are more in need that the fronts, cold just be the car.

Fender rolling depends greatly on your alignment and ride height. There are crazy camber guys who can tuck a 15x9 under their fenders with very little effort.

Don't worry about rolling your fenders. It's not much effort and is worth the work to not need to run a ton of camber.

I agree, I am trying to stay close to a street alignment as possible and with a ride height lowered but not slammed, so maybe 2 fingers from the tire to the lip in the rear.
Done the roll on rears, went well but not looking for more work right now.

Thanks
