    Seems Sinfix_15 missed the point the I made... But it's cool, I have a hard time understanding a bunch of things!

    I only offered my opinion since this is an open forum..


    No pissing match needed, thx!

    ....because at some point some people actually give a shit if something is made with quality. Maybe it's because when I got into this whole car thing, there were no mass amounts of chinka-reps...the parts were all "legit" parts...I've just learned to go with the good stuff. But that's just me. There are some things that scare me when it comes to reps though...like seats. We all know Bride and we all know Bride participates in a lot of motorsports...and deductive reasoning should say that Bride puts R&D into their designs and materials. Do the Chinese give a shit if the metal they're using is shit and can't handle the loads that a seat can take in an impact? Fuck no. Do I care that God forbid something happens to me when I am driving, that I would not want to worry about my seat failing? Fuck yes. Yes, I know that is an extreme situation, but shit happens...and I've been there. I don't knock on all the knock-off stuff though. Hell, I use Rotas for my track wheels....would I run Volks or SSRs or CCWs? Fuck yes. But for something I don't use that much, they suffice for now. These days, Rotas are more legit than the knockoffs of knockoffs...at least they're not made in Chinka. I guess what I am saying is I feel the massive amounts of knock-off/reps are 99.9% Chinese...and they could not give two fucks less about quality...and that's insulting.

    I understand wanting quality, but not all knock offs are poor quality and not all of the expensive wheels are made in any way that improves quality over the "avg wheel".
