agreed. If a knockoff looks just as good id rather get the knock off and spend the money i saved on other parts. Its not like a knockoff rim will perform any different

whatever lol. i just hate when people refer to rotas or drags as real or "authentic" wheels.
you can refer to rotas as authentic when its their own design... if its a reproduction of more expensive wheel its a knockoff theres no iffs or buts...

and i do have rotas ( had 2 sets actually) but i dont fool myself OR OTHERS into thinking they are authentic or any kind of special...

I agree with raverx3m last post, who cares what you rock, some people would rather have the real "original" wheels. Some people are perfectly fine with owning knock off wheels because they were made for one purpose, to look like the real thing with sometimes cheaper materials or the process to make them less expensive. Just don't try to play them off as the real thing. I have polished slips, I'm not going to throw ragamaster stickers on them to claim them as something they arent.
