what do you guys think of rota wheels?



reason i ask is cause being tight on money as it is, spending $650 per rim is outragious! so rota makes a pretty decent looking replica that sells for $630 for the set...





picture these on a sliver FC

On a silver one? I'm going to say no, man. I think they'd look sexy on a midnight blue FC, though.

they look decent, not the lightest wheels available either. But overall, you could do at lot worse.

I think I'd like them better on a silver car if there weren't those weird silver dot looking things, and if the lip was smaller with only a thin line of silver on it. Just my opinion...

I like the look. Very clean not ricey. True, not the lightest wheel(I think they are cast as opposed to forged) but looks great to my eyes.
