Go to http://www.wheelmax.com. They are famous for copying other wheels and labeling the Exel. Be aware: their customer service folks are rude and unprofessional in their attitude.

Re: (TougeToad)

Black Racing is like a rota sort of but from Japan. They copy Watanabe and another rim that I can't think of the moment. I wanna say some Advan rim but not quite sure.

Damn howd you come across those. They look alright, just like any other copies the lugnut placement is off and the spokes arnt as thick.

Would like to see more pictures

Re: (mikochu)

IMO the cups are ugly

straight spokes look much cleaner.

Re: the IMITATION wheel thread (swisher_man)

I got the best copies yet, and I bet lots of you will go out and buy these next. All are from BSA wheels ... http://www.bsawheels.com.au. This might be the new Rota brand man, hehe. Made in Malaysia.

Fakes only, you all know the reals:

First off, my favorites, Enkei rips:

Gotta love the stickers haha (Vork RAVS)

Curvy version of Sterns rite?

O.G. Buddyclubs foo, where else have you seen these?

and the best part is they are cheaper than Rotas. Their main distributor is here in SoCal. I dont think I know the full effect of what I've just done hehe.
