Talk to Driftworks, they may be able to order in the size you want. Nothing ventured etc etc. If you have to pay a bit extra that could be offset by what you will have to pay to change your hubs.

This. It is Driftworks after all, they are the UKs largest wheel provider and able to custom order almost anything.

Spoke to driftworks.

They said they are unable to provide me with the fitment I want in the rota range, but are able to provide me the size I want in their higher priced wheels. Typical!

So I guess I'll have to hold onto my titans

MK, are you running 17s? I’m looking to change wheels at present but can’t decide between 17s or 18s. My car came on scabby 18s which I have replaced with reasonable 17s but want something more presentable.

Yeah im running the 17s Titans with Yokohama Advan Neova Rubber. 235/40/17s

But at the moment i am in a middle of a hub swap. Going from a 5x108 to 5x114.3

as my new Rota gtr's will look stunning on my brick.

The rotas are 17x9.5 on the rear et25 and 17x9 on the front et30
