Default What do you guys think of these rims ... (not an appearance question!!!)

This was moved from the integra forum to the appearance cosmetic. Perhaps I agree it shouldnt have been in the integra forum ... but not the appearance forum!!
I'm actually interested in peoples opinions on the quality and comparison to the mentioned brands price etc.
They are imported and badged as Speedy wheels in Australia. They look like a rip off of the spoon/rota/regamaster rims (which we cant easily get hold of here). Is it possible that it could be one of those (well not the Spoons!!) rebadged?
How do guys think they compare spec wise and price wise.
They cost about $250 for 15" = US$130 each. Think they're about $300 for 16" = US$155 each. The 15" weighs 6kg (13.2lbs) and the 16" 7.0kg (16.1lbs).



Oh there are also these Advan RG ripoffs ... only in 15" though. They weigh 6.3kg (13.9lbs).



I'm considering either of these for my teg (no I dont expect you guys to tell me which ones are "cool" ... I'll decide that on my own )
Cheers
Mike

spoon=regamaster

spoon/regamaster does not = rota

rota = copy

Well, the 15 inch Rotas are a little bit lighter. 11.8 pounds compared to 13.2 pounds as you mentioned. HTH.
