Rotawheels 4x110: RBs or Flush...help please
I trust our forum to provide feedback / knowledge to help me decide on this topic. I've stumbled upon some Rotawheels having the 4x110 bolt pattern: "RB" and "Flush".
- The RBs are on Ebay, now, and appear to be 15x7 w/ 20mm offset; perfect for my '81 FB GS.
- The Flush are on Rota's website, and appear to be 15x7 with a 10mm offset, or 15x8 with a 20mm offset. My wife likes the "Flush" wheel, so...
I've attached photos. My current wheels are ROH Snypers (and I think they are 15x7; not 15x8).
Note: I currently run 195/50 on front and 205/50 on the rear.
Actually, I am amazed if any of these wheels are currently available!
Thanks!

I picked up some Konig wheels that look exactly like the second pic. 15x7 20mm offset 4x110 gray with polished lip. Discount Tire Direct had a killer deal at $350 shipped for all four. This was on eBay last year.

Same but got mine on Amazon for about $100 each. The tires cost more than the wheel (Dunlop Star Spec II ).

I think 15x7+20mm fitment is perfect for a non GSL-SE FB. And you can always accommodate a small 2,3 or 5mm spacer if required and not worry about any issues.
I have Rota Mesh OS 15x7 +20 on my FB with your same tire specs, 195/50/15(F) and 205/50/15(R). Can't go wrong for the money.
I am partial to the mesh wheel look and can't imagine any other wheels on an FB!

The "Flush" wheels have +10 offset, and I have no experience with wheel spacers. I assume that may be an issue; so any advice is appreciated (as we like the "Flush" wheel design).
Also, I've ordered a set of Dunlop Diressa DZ102 and should be ready to mount next week and these tires will go onto the current ROH Snypers.
I had my car out earlier this week, and my old Kumho Ecstas rear tire tore apart. The photo shows how the entire sidewall detached form the tire. Luckily, the rim isn't damaged and a state trooper stopped to assist, as the flat tire happened in front of the State Highway Patrol Station DMV office! He actually took my OE decades-old spare to put air in it for me...and it held air! Great big thanks to that helpful State Trooper.

Yeah, I've been eyeing the Flush as well. My car is completely stock '85, non-SE. I don't know what all I'd have to do to run the 15x8; if they're still available.
Beautiful cars on this thread, BTW.
