Funny thing is when those payless shoes wax the shit out of you on the street :) . Buying top dollar wheels is great if you are rich and have an awesome security system. Otherwise a car can look just as good, and be alot less theft prone with cheaper wheels. I also don't recall females giving me flirty looks giving a damn if I have Volks or Rotas lol :D .
They wouldn't give any of us flirty looks, we drive DMS...hahaha :wall:

I knew something like that would show up in here. In most cases, aftermarket wheels end up like that in a wreck. A damn wreck... haha not like you are just driving around and BOOM wheel desinegrates.

Not everyone wants to spend $1700 on a set of wheels when they can get something identical much cheaper.

I can think of quite a few things a DSMer can spend $1700 on rather than something cosmetic just because it has the "name" to go along with it. :confused:

Thats like buying HKS cams when you can buy the same Brian Crower cams for cheaper. Same thing without the inflated imported cost. :dunno:
Exactly. If Rotas were a Japanese wheel, they would be 4X the price. But, they are made in the Philippines so you don't get jacked by inflated "JDM" prices. And I'm sure some of it is import tariffs on those products coming from Japan.
