The truth about Rota wheels

[—tsingson—]

I stopped at the "Chinese knock off." Rota is actually a Philippine based company. But for me, whatever anyone wants to put on their car is fine. I know/knew many people that ran them and them hard and had no issues. I also read stories on the internet that would give me nightmares. If you can shell out the money for expensive brand wheels, by all means. Its no different than shoe companies, jeans, you name it. How many coilover companies are out there? How about fender flares? Seats? Just worry about your own cars and build it the way you want. You don't like the cheap wheels? Don't buy them. And for those who sit there and say it takes money away from the "real" manufacturers, how is it any different than the internet stores and big box stores that close our local stuff? Never thought I would see the day where there are no Radio Shacks and Toys R Us around. Money is going to go where it goes. You just have to change with the times, right?
