I'd be 100% less pissed off at Rota if they actually designed their own shit, instead they steal from other companies to make a $$.

Although if Rota actually spent $$ designing wheels they wouldn't cost $70 a pop. :lol:

Look into wheel manufactures who are less expensive but still design their own shit, stop supporting the knock offs!!

/rant

:D

wow...so what you're saying is that u hate rota because they copy? a lot....actually most rims i see that are popular now are knockoffs of Eagle-alloy's wheels from the early 90's when people wanted something better for their mustangs and camaro's. just about any 5-star or 6-star, twist design or 3-star wheel is some sort of eagle design...

plus there's only so much you can do with a wheel....it's a freakin circle with cut out design on it...and there's only so much that will actually look good when it's all said and done. so if someone can do it cheaper than the factory and the high-end companies, i'll take it. they may not use t-6061 billet or run an extreme polish on it, but i can deal with that. and powdercoat will chip like paint, so i would rather have painted wheels so i can blast and re-coat them. also, some alloys can't be repaired, the cheaper wheels can be with simple welders and a guy who knows what hes' doing.
