If I can get a quality wheel with a good light weight, why would I spend up to 5 times the amount on the so called real thing. So because they look similar it makes them a knock off? So what is the Rota Torque a knock off of? How about the Rota Gforce, or The ROta SVN?

or since most people spend less than 4k$ on their tib and rota is a good quality 'knock-off' its a great option.. spending 2k$ or so on rims/tires for a DD econobox is moronic
Well, call me a moron. The rims I'm getting are over $300/ea.

i think some people here are getting bent outta shape over nothing.
if you enjoy cheaper wheels that get the job done then rotas are for you. there is nothing wrong with buying the cheapest option, im just pointing out that you guys are not buying the real thing........just a cheap version of the real thing.
google "rotas are knockoffs" and see what i mean
"friends don't let friends rock rotas"

Yeah. I just can't justify spending more on rims than my car's worth. Doesn't make much sense to me at all. It *might* make sense if I had a car that was considered a luxury car, but, even then, I would probably buy something cheaper for it.
I personally think if Rota does a good job at making a quality rim for 1/5th of the price of a "real" rim, I would much rather buy rotas. You can't tell me that you've never bought knock-off products before. If you always buy the "real" thing, then you must be made of money.
Take a look at my job. The pic isn't that great (taken at night with my camera phone), but you can get the jist..

does remind me of a teg. the curcuit8 is a good looking rim because its a copy of a sick looking rim.
i agree you need to drop it cause it looks sort of on the small side. i'm sure when i get my 16"s on there i'll have to do the same.

The rims look good richard!
Thats cool, I will take my knockoffs and drive circles around you all day long. If you are so insecure about your car that you gotta rock the name brand, sucks to be you. If you are that insecure, why you rollin a hyundai? Go buy a honda you tool. I would much rather spend my money on a better turbo, injectors, intecooler, supspension or cams. OOOHHHH NOEZ I didnt get the real deal jdm rims that cost 5 times as much and are no better than what I got. what will I ever do with myself. Ah shit and I am not wearing Sean John pants!!!!! I am going to be the laughing stock of America! Why don't you go buy some real audio equipment instead of that audiobahn garbage?
