Well I think you should get the mehses.... I just like the way they look. I was gonna get a set, then came across a good deal on some poser Rotas... and I say that cause everyone thinks I wanted to get a spoon look alike. SOO.. I just made the wheels more "my" wheels. I never see them polished very often so....



Maybe you should concider refinishing the wheel to more somthing you like. May look way better a different color ect

Are those Royal Sports Bronze? I haven't seen them with the polished lip. I think I'd keep the Rotas.

wtf mate? Your rotas are so sparkely, is that what you want to hear? Jesus, ive got my c8's and wouldnt trade them for anything. They are banged and battered, theres so much class with something so cheap. Its a copy, and gets the job done better.



keep is hard bro.


badboyr66 gotz it goyin onnn and on.

Sell Rotas for more Rotas?

Just keep your C8s until you decide to get some real wheels.

Well i see what you're saying, but they aren't forged (like alot of the more-costly wheels)... so, no they don't get the job done better.

But, just b/c Rotas aren't forged, doesn't mean they are not 'real' wheels:

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by dave22 &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">..until you decide to get some real wheels</TD></TR></TABLE>

they are cheap, light, and look good. Unless you're looking to hit the track hard, there's little need to get a forged wheel. And unless you're looking to get mad-props at a show, the same reasoning applies IMHO.

to me it's just about what you like. And if you're willing to pay to play with the big-boys.
