$120!?!? Baller.

Somebody needs to stop caring about silly asian wheels and get these genuine 'merican racing dubs off my hands.

I havr had rotas fro 2 years and never had a problem with them, i even mounted slicks on a set and launched off two step..
my opinion is just like everything in life, how you treat things is how they will last

check out takumi project, jdm wheels in decent shape for around $700-$1k, if you are 4x100 and looking for 15's they have sooooo many options, BE ORIGINAL!:loser:

i fuigured so, but that was kinda geared toward everyone else who thinks jdm wheels are rediculously expensive.

I almost bought 2 sets of wheels from Takumi, the first set (one of my dream sets of wheels) I had given them my CC info and everything, only to get a call back saying 'oh, one of them is cracked and doesnt hold air... we can patch it for you, or take $80 less and ship them as-is'... I said no thanks. from the pics on the site, it looks like they get a lot of used 'second quality' wheels that the other importers pass on... some of the wheels even look like they just barely survived serious/fatal wrecks.

This thread getting out of hand anyway.

I thought this thread was about a broken wheel too. I posted on the first page that its obvious the car went off road, any wheel would/could break under those conditions. No one probably read my post becuase it was in the of rota hate discussion.

I was thinking the same thing. I didn't post since you had already posted what I thought about the rim.
