Price tag, the finish and the weight, maybe a stamp or something.

Well, Regamasters (makers of Spoon SW388s) are forged not cast. Very strong and extremely light. I'm guessing the Regas cost aprx. $350 per wheel (15s) while the Rotas are half that amount and are cast. If you can afford the Regas go for it. If not, and you're a poor slob like the rest of us, the Rotas are a great buy for the money..

then why'd you mention price, if he's only looking at the wheel itself
