Wheels Something different from BBS

[RedMk2Gti]

We saw too many BBS.
This will look hot in Mk1/2/3, not sure about quality though, it is made in Philippine.

Rota's are the example people use when justifying how replica wheels fail.
Google "rota failure" and you will see wheels that have sheared off at the hub etc.
No one has anything good to say about them from what i have read.


They may be better now but i would still be wary.

I think thats a really old picture and quality has improved loads. You see a lot of Jap cars running Rota's, seen tonnes of Impreza's & Skylines with Rota Grids on them.

I toyed with the idea of buying a set when i was in the market but decided i couldn't live with the second teir reputation & replica status. Problem is as soon as you mention you run Rota's you get a lot of people turning their noses up, which makes their re-sale value low.

Regardless, you'd have to buy a legit idiot to buy Rota RB's over Superlites.

Are slip streams the Spoon SW388/Desmond Regamaster rip-offs?
Rega's are right up there on my list of favourite wheels even though they're basically a rip off themselves.

I reckon rotas are sweet as. They offer looks, for someone who cant afford the real deal. And not all people are fussed with it being ORIGINAL or REAL, most couldnt give two sh*ts.

Personally i like the rims, and i know a few of my friends have them, and havnt had any problems (yet lol). For the rims to be breaking or shearing, youd had to be an idiot and definately doing something wrong. This, is all IMO !

[RedMk2Gti]

Are they really that BAD !!!!!

A la....
