Whats wrong with Rota's?

[naossoan]

I was thinking about getting some 17" ROTA rims this summer because a friend mentioned them to me.

But everyone is saying they use shotty construction. I don't know much about wheels or cars really in general, I just want some nice (looking) wheels and tires.

What I think some people are failing to understand is not everyone can afford the 'real' enkei, bbs, whatever rims. I certainly can't. In those situations I have no choice but to go for the 'knock off' wheels if I want to have a good set of tires, which is mor eimportant than the rims themselves anyways.

I just want rims that will hold up in normal every day use with the occasional fast drive down some twisty roads. If ROTA's can't handle that, then I'll have to look elsewhere, but from what I've heard they will.

If another company that uses better contruction and 'original' designs has a large assortment of rims for less than $700/set then please, point me in their direction.
