Rofl! so that sounded stupid! But thats what he said they were, and I've never had rotas or any aftermarket rims for that matter. So I was wondering if theres a way to tell if they are real. I havent seen them yet

You dont need to worry if they are "real" rotas or not. Rotas are already replicas.

Fat fives are worth what, about $200+ with tires? If so, then no, it's not worth it.

I was able to get almost mint Rota Slipstreams with 80% treadlife left for $450.

Well, even if they are beat up, I still think that they are worth at least $150.

$150 + $350 = $500

Still not THAT great of a deal. I usually see slipstreams going from $400-$450, with $450 being in great condition. Help your friend out by looking through Market Place for a better deal.

Well we told this guy we would do 250 and the fat fives. We havent had a responce, but you think that would be fair considering there is a nail in one of the fat fives tires and they are a bit messed up with 50% tread?

How awesome would it be if he bought them for $350, and found out they weren't real Rotas but actually Spoons?

I would be very angry that I did not find this deal first.
