There have been a couple of horror stories ouot there about breaking rotas but most that i've heard is when the owner of the car is either tracking the car or running into shit. figure with how many sets of wheels they put out even if 2% of them break then you'd of course hear those stories. If you have 100,000 wheels in the market and 2,000 of them break, you have a 2% fail rate (which is VERY respectable) but that also creats 2000 bad stories that get plastered all over every forum on the web. I think rota's are fine to rock. I don't usually like them because everytime i see a honda it has rotas of some sort. maybe look into Drag wheels or something, possibly konig or even enkie. btw, the rota wheels that you have in the first post are pretty sick looking.

first of all rotas are not fake.
They are REAL WHEELS! just replica knockoffs of other wheels.

Real product! just shitty material they are made of.

I had never even heard about Rota's until I came to this website. Most of us are driving Hondas worth less than 10K. Who really cares if your wheels are "real"? So much status wrapped up into wheels when some of you have wheels worth 1/4 of your cars value.

I had Rota Slipstreams on my EVO as race wheels and they are awesome wheels. Light and cheap. I could give two shits if I cubed a Rota, but if I curbed a Volk or SSRs, I'd be effin pissed.

Rota wheels are not too bad depending on what ones you buy and what car and color and all the other obvious factors. But when it comes down to it, it is really only about what you like. Personally I do not like the particular wheels you are thinking about but Rota has some others that are pretty good.
