Nice SUPER ADVAN....huhhhh I mean ROTAS

[bigdare23]

Well, I guess Rota's not going to stop until the copy every unique rim ever created. What's next Rotas? Are you going to copy OEM Honda rims too? What's next for Rota, Blades, Meshes, Si's, Fat Fives. No original rim is safe.

The Rota Grid's look nothing like the Volk TE37 wheel. It is a very bad copy IMO.

I'd rock them shamelessly... .I love the super advans, and it always seems like when I find the ones I want, I don't have the cash, and when I have the cash, I can't find ones I want. :(

[ahmonrah]

just avoid the rota......i'll just rock my kouki stockers til i can get my hands on authentic advans.....

Lol I highly doubt Volk and Advan are hurting. Advan is owned by Yokohama if memorey serves me correctly. Think they are good. Volk seems to be doing just fine too. I owned a set of Super Advans, don't see what the fuss is about em really.

Sure they looked good and all but past that, meh.

^^they were a unique wheel and now you will see them alot more, thats my only problem with rota.

I honestly don't see alot of people rocking these even if they are rotas

And i'll laugh at you in front of your face b/c I didn't pay the extra cost :goodjob:

[Logan]

I like rota.

I like how they copy classics.

Cheaper and newer.

I see no problem with that.

[mr.koupe]

they "copied" the gabsport wheel lol, mmm well they tried too haha .. look nothing alike :no: .. any other crappy copies from rota ??? :D

[skillzilla]

Its every small wheel company now, but yeah, that doesnt make it right.

(by "small wheel company" I mean half ass, no class, knockoff artist bitches)

[BTLFED]

Nothing is sacred. I hope every big wig at Rota dies a slow and painful death.

[bigdare23]

Laugh@ "trying" to ball on a budget

[BobbyFresco]

Exactly....You can purchase a used set for anywhere between 400-900 with and without tires, depending on condition.....

:rolleyes:
Of course you would and the simple answer to that is because you're a ricer.
The bottom line is after buying these Rotas or any Rota wheel for that matter, adding in the cost of tires, you could buy a set of real deal wheels.

Wow. PPL kill me justifying their reasons for supporting a company that a . has no original designs of their own and b. downing someone for spending money on the real wheels but yet you're buying a fake in the hopes of looking like you have the real thing. Just sad and sickening IMO.

I hate that ****.

[Glides]

I love how the term "Ricer" is instantly applied to anyone that doesn't think the same way another person does.

Who really gives a flying **** if someone has Rota's or not? Do any of you who are bitching about it actually buy any Rota's? If you don't, go in the bathroom and pat yourself on the back, you earned a gold star for the day.

If you care about it that much that you can't sit on your high horse with your rare Japanese wheel anymore because another company copied it, boo hoo. The rest of the world gives a ****. If you don't like Rota's, don't buy em. If you do, do. It's that easy. But to sit here and make fun of people (behind their back or in their face) is just ridiculous.

Some folks might not want to buy a set of beat up Advans for 400 bucks, then spend 500 on tires when they can get a new set of wheels for the same price. Some people use their parents money, and no self respecting parent is going to buy their kid used wheels for his car. So instead of that, they comprimise and get the Rota's.

So instead of thinking with your JDM Elitist "I'm better than you cause I got the real thing", try thinking with your brain. Would you buy a used set of Nike's just because they are Nike's or would you get new shoes that might look like Nikes but haven't been abused by a former owner?

Sheesh you guys are something else sometimes with all this elitist bull****.

I agree with the " To each their own" mentality BUT, the average person that purchases a Rota wheels isn't buying it because they want to sport an affordable wheel. Demand=supply. The whole "jdm style" movement has saturated the market with bullshyt ass products such as these wheels. The average buyer of a Rota wheel is a poser.

They've seen a car on honda-tech or jdm universe or nwp4life or whatever the case, with the real deal wheels and want to emulate that........BUT then talk shyt about the people who actually care what goes on their car because they forked over the money through blood, sweat and tears, or maybe through the swipe of a credit card to get those real wheels.

My point is this: if you buy Rotas because you simply want a set of wheels for your car, fine. BUT if you're buying a set of Rotas in the hopes that you're going to fool and or impress ppl that you think don't know any better( and go as far as putting decals in the attempt to mimic the real thing) then you're a fuking poser, point blank.

I agree with that, if you get em to try and fool people, shame on you. If I bought some Rota's, i'd rock Rota logo's on em. I buy a wheel because of looks, I could give a damm if it says Volk, Rota or Sonjay Gupta's Turbo Special. Doesn't matter to me. I buy wheels for me, not everyone else.

But you have to think, everyone coming into the scene cannot afford the real thing or don't want used wheels. To say that the average buyer of these wheels is a poser is a rather sweeping statement. Without the average buyer of these wheels who also buy lot's of other stuff usually, the scene that you love and the Japanese products that you so like to sport would have taken alot longer to get here. Do you think and Autobacs would have opened up without the "poser" demand for it? The JDM market flourishes because of all these average posers who make a market force. People see this and they bring whatever they can latch onto into the states. Because I hate to break it to you, but the JDM diehards aren't responsible for any big movement in the Import Scene, masses are. An example would be this.

Import Atlanta. Without the 954215451 average people, this site would be nothing. Very little sponsors, very few posts and hardly no traffic. But pour in about 10,000 posers and it becomes a large site generating revenue, attracting sponsors and Julio can buy a new car. See how that works, numbers are power, the more number, the more power. It works the same way with automobiles. 200 diehard followers of the Skyline weren't responsible for it coming to America. IT was the 100,000 or more screaming fans of the car on message boards, importing them at astronomical fees and whatnot that got Nissan to finally bring it over here. Besides, Advan, Volk or any other hardcore JDM wheel makers aren't making jack on used wheels. They actually get screwed on used wheels since that person that wanted them won't buy new now, that's why alot of wheel companies also do tires or are under an umbrella company of tire companies. They get you either way. But a good bit of the time your Rota buyer will move on to better wheels so in the end companies still win.

The funny thing is that wheels such as Rota's and whatnot have a following in Japan. They will forgo the real thing to get the fake copy because to them it's cool. Are they posers as well? Can't be, they are the real JDM.

But I do agree, if you buy Rota's, stand up like a man and rock em. Any falsafication on their part is grounds for ridicule.

The average buyer of a Rota wheel is a poser.


As opposed to the average buyer of a JDM wheel, who buys them just to separate himself from the "cheap" wheel buyers. There's posers everywhere, no matter what brand of wheel they buy.

the real wheel buyers seperate themselves from everyone to have something rare and unique to have that will make them stand out and make a statement without having to use some bs crap and stickers to imitate.

That's cool if you feel that way, but I personally don't feel like I need my car or the wheels on my car to be unique or rare to make me standout or make statements for me.

[BTLFED]

That can go both ways. Real enthusiasts don't build their cars for other people, they build it for themselves, so I can see where you are coming from on that. BUT, what if that person wants real deal wheels for themselves? I personally will NEVER put ANY garbage ass Rota on my car. When I built my CRX I didn't cheap out on anything, so why cheap out on the wheels? I don't give a sh!t about what people think about my car. I care about what I think about my car.
