Tyre width/profile?

Are they Rota

Love that rear dish.

Nice one J, they do look a thousand times better than the 18's it had before.

I've been doing the offset sums (and usual procrastination) over a set of these in 17x9.5 all round for my flatty when it eventually gets the 5 stud parts. Did they let you trial fit before purchase? They're only a couple of suburbs from me and they have them in 4 stud too.

Full marks to this bloke!
They are exactly Rota RKR's in 17x8.5 +10 front and 17x9.5 -5 rear.
A lot of people hate on Rotas, but I don't care, and these were the only reasonably priced wheels available off the shelf that I could find.
