this may sound dumb but, rotas are made in the phillipines. as hard as they copy i dont think rota would put "made in japan" on their ****.

like i said, im usually way off on this kind of ****.

i thought rays did not produce stickers, if he has some stickers they are knockoffs, as well as the wheels more than likely, i could be wrong tho

Please refer to the advert, we do them in black or blue
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayI...27083

They are exact replicas, VOLK RAYS do not produce them..

They look real to me.

I remember someone saying that one of the lug holes (on 4 lug pattern) lines up with the valve stem. I'm not sure about 5 lug though.

i'd say with tires, (800) real or not (they are still nice looking) fake stickers, real valve stems, so so condition, just a guess. i would hate to overpay for something not real
