Something different from BBS

[jasn78]

you would think if that had really happened when driving you would see alot more/any damage to the actual car around the wheel well

You can buy & run Rota's or replica's if you like they way the look. Just don't mention it on the interweb.



etc, etc

LoL.

I wouldn't buy rotas. Sure they look cool. But I'd rather stick it out and find something genuine

Most of the sheared Rota pics you'll see on the net are of race cars or ones that have been tracked. If you're just using them for street use, I honestly can't see anything like this ever happening, but if they're going to use any replica rims for racing, then I think they get what they deserve.

All wheels will get damaged under extreme abuse there is no doubt about that.
High end light weight wheels are not particularly strong. Just look at all the people that have had damaged OZ wheels.
I think the difference seems to be a good quality wheel will bend or crack instead of snapping like these things seem to.

Man have seen some of the dang pot holes around. Let alone random bumps etc.

There's some guys here in Bris with rota grids on their Subies and they look great. I'd buy them if I was just driving round the streets.
