I think thats just rotas version of bronze. circuit 8's look the same way , nothing like mugen or volk bronze. (they have more of a brownish tint to there bronze) Kinda looks more like winning gold imo.

bronze!

your lighting is prob bad, take them out in direct sunlight so you can see the real color of that cheap *** paint.
Man, you sure do cap on quite a few people who buy these wheels. Why don't you just let it be, they're not hurting you in any way...All your Hybrid buddies use them, what's the difference?

I agree that the quality is sub-par...The paint comes off it you look at it too long. And yes, people are buying them for the looks.

I just got my 16" slipstreams in bronze today too. I know what you are saying they don't look really like bronze its a real light sand type color. Nonetheless I love the Rota bronze.

When I got mine, I thought they were gunmetal (I actually ORDERED gunmetal).

I got them on the car, put them in sunlight, and wallah, they're bronze.
