16x8 Rota Slipsteams for the NC?
Has anyone tried these? We had them on our NA. $400! And about 12lbs per wheel. According to there site they are available in 16x8 and 48 mm offset.
Back in the saddle after an 8 yr. absence and it feels good!

I have them, they are not 12#'s. Just a hair over 17#'s. Rota says 15.5#, but they were a bit optimistic?

Indeed we had some issues with Rota but quality improves all the time so I expect their tolerances are closer to the mark these days and, as I have noted in the past, the issues we had were not enough to keep us from going with Rota when they had a unique combo of size and price....as appears to be the situation here.
