MARC MOSS Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 Guessing your emailing them now?I wouldn't even waste my worst enemy's piss on any of the wheels on that site, have you had a browse through it ??? To me it's a good giggleAnd I know that rare rims will have a fit about them lol especially as they apparently hold all of the correct safety specs as well.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 If theyre willing to break copyright laws to replicate a wheel you dont think theyre willing to bullshit on the testing gibberish they put online...I imagine for the best part they will do the job but hitting potholes or anything at speed id be very nervous lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 Allegedly that is. Knowing the Chinese they have even stamped the jwl and via stamps as jw1 and v1a lolAnnoyingly there are a few really good looking sets of wheels on there but looking is as far asIt goes Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MARC MOSS Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 And yea I really think they would mark them with similar safety markings to sell them, it's big business unfortunately and they love it lol'dI bought my wife a Louis viton bag the other week as a gift and in Portugal the other day I saw the exact same bag in the china bizarre shop for 12 lol.. I got talkin to the owner and he gave me the web address for the wheels Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bussey Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Tempted to get a set of these in 18 for my tdi golf daily.... Questioning my safety at the same time though haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Yeah exactly. Rota do make theirs, all be it very slightly, different. But to someone who knows what they're looking at you can tell even if its labelled up as genuine. These are made identical so its no longer a replica but a copy which is technically illegal. But no1 can do anything about it because its chinese lol i doubt the via even is v1a they just don't give a fuck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 You can get a 22" te37 for your vw lol They even do an e46 m3 rim in a 20&21" lol what the fuck Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 China couldn't careless about copyrights. When I was in ayia napa a shop had beats head phones and they were £3. Chatting to the owner he just laughed and said he paid 75p per item if he ordered over 100 from china it was actualy cheaper for him to buy copy's of extremely over prices head phones that it was for him to buy really cheap non branded headphones. And the company would pretty much make any copy's the guy wanted Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted August 25, 2014 Author Share Posted August 25, 2014 Yup the beats in Portugal are cheap as well, they sound bloody good as well lol..How do they do it ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Just a lack of everything from health and safety to minimum wages and taxes all help keep prices low has.I work in farming salmon and the amount of money we have to spend keeping all the different auditors happy and meeting various standards is colossal and the price per kilo is still like 20% of what you pay in shops because then it goes thought different distributors and what not each putting there own costs ontop Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Less than 20p a day wages lolWeve had products from our work cloned in less than 6 weeks. From demo at a expo when they would have 1st seen them to them having them on the shelves. We couldnt build 1 or 2 tools in that time and they must have done 10 with production runs and everything.
