Nothing is wrong with them, they are great wheels. Expensive lighter wheels break and bend just as easily as Rotas. Wheels dont just break for no reason. They break because you drive over or run into things.

There are only 3 qualities you can have in a wheel -

Light Strong Cheap

Pick 2 and live with your choice

true automotive enthusiasts would not say that, as true auto enthusiasts are few and far between...Then again, i guess their is always a fine obscure line between conniseur and asshole. To put it simply some peeps like me just cant afford the real thing, and i aint gonna lie, if i could afford em, id get volks, or be throwing on a set or mugen nr10's on my honda, but for now at this point in my life, i am much more than appreciative to be getting Rotas on my car in a few weeks. Much love Rota, one of the best things to come outta the Phillipines ever
