If I remember correctly the Tarmacs were re-named as the GRA or Force (cant remember which one at the mo... will check when Im at work) because another wheel company decided to call their similar wheel the tarmac

The GRA's are Rota's version of the Tarmac which are made by Inovit.
BTW James... do you do any other wheel nuts other than blue or red with your wheel packages? & what brand of locking nut is it you're selling?

As swampster said, the Rota GRA is the UK name for the Rota Tarmac.
The only lockers we do are bog standard unbranded ones. The lightweight nuts are the same but are VERY light indeed!

Hi James I had my name down originally. Was wanting 5x100 17x7.5 rota torques. I have looked at a few colours and really wanted gold or gloss black but I think gunmetal is the closest to the latter. Have you any pics of torques on cars in GMetal or can you take a non marketing picture of the GM's for me. Looking to buy in the next week or 2 when I pic up some brembos which these wheels must clear

There was a website called www.subydude.com that in the gallery you could search by wheel type and colour and its all pics people have taken of there own cars but i checked it there and it doesnt seem to be working today.... it was yesterday so maybe its just down for a bit, give it a go later.
thats how i made my decision, it lists all of the Rota wheels including torques.
