If all you plan to do is hard park there is 0 issues with using cast wheels. Now for real racing I would agree a purpose built forged or steel wheel is going to be a lot safer.

Agreed

but even for those people that just hard park their car. well at least for those hard parkers that go to shows and expect to win legitamite trophies... if 2 cars are sitting next to eachother with similar mods but one has rota grids and the other has legit te-37's.... which will take the trophy home? if someone wants their car in a magazine shoot will the editor of the magazine pick a car with knock off parts or one of the many that spend their hard earned cash on legit name brand quality parts/wheels?

it is all a matter of opinion. i have owned rota slipstreams on my first prelude. yes if you just want something pretty to drive around on the street then sportmaxx and rotas might satisfy your needs.

if you plan on being like charley sheen and 'winning' then you need legit parts/wheels
hahaha
