JayJ Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Everyone have fake seats, seatbelts, steering wheels, BOV's you name it and no one bats an eye, someone buys Rota's and everyone loses their mind Pic related.
loguey Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 A friend of mine kerbed a "real" rota and it bent the rim, only slightly, but still bent it none the less. Imagine sliding into a kerb in the snow on replice rota....

Imagine sliding into a kerb in the snow on replice rota.... yea it would probably be completely the same. why would a wheel made in china bend anymore than one made in the Philippine's?
daniel_g Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 I doubt theyre even made from metal, probably bamboo or something.
JayJ Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Guess u own a set then? Wanna buy some replica rotas? Yes, I own a set. No, because there is a difference copying design and copying trademark

Rubix_Cube Posted August 16, 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) A friend of mine kerbed a "real" rota and it bent the rim, only slightly, but still bent it none the less. Imagine sliding into a kerb in the snow on replice rota.... Yeah ok.... thats right your friend kerbed the wheel and it bent... In the video below at 40seconds in you'll see the Driftworks S15 smashing into the Driftworks R32 rear quarter. Now this was at a good 40-50mph the rear S15 arch, wheel and the likes took ALL the impact.... at 1.55 you'll see how much of the S15 rear end bent....and at 1.58 you'll see the ROTA GTR-D's the car run scrapted to shit but 100% whole and still holding air! >http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCABuXaODWEAll wheels bend/crack etc, they warp and crack more if they are powder coated at the wrong temp, which is where most of the ROTA meme pictures come from. yea it would probably be completely the same. why would a wheel made in china bend anymore than one made in the Philippine's? Because the wheel in the Philippines is tested to industry standards unlike the chinese wheel which is made and then sold to the public....To all the people going on and on about how shit ROTA are take 5mins out of your busy day and read this post...it may actually open your eyes. http://www.86forums.com.au/index.php?/topic/162-question-on-durability-of-rota-wheels/ Edited August 16, 2013 by Rubix_Cube
