are the rota rims that look like mugens crap?? sorry for the n00b question. also are there Mugen centre caps to replace the rota ones?

[e]First of all I don't think they make them in 5 lug so they woudn't fit your car. Not sure on the centercaps.

lightweight(i assume) replica wheels = not a bad idea.. same look/performance for less purchase/replacement cost..

trying to put expensive wheels logo on your knockoffs = rice move.. aaaaannnnnnttttttttt.. wrong answer, sorry, but thanks for playing..

edit: if you want mugens, save your pennies and buy mugens.. if you just want the look, then by replicas.. never fake badge.. that's why so many people ask me if my R is real..

Just say its a LS with R seats and stickers and add "y0" to the end of ever sentence.....

 

an Rs with ITR seats...remember the LS has a sunroof ...y00!

 

well, if they can't tell it's a real R, who is to say they'll know it's a real LS..

 

true

 

what if i dont like the look of the rota logo on my centre cap.... how is it a rice move...people call everything rice these days!! to the guy who said they dont come in 5 bolt.....WTF ...of coarse they do.

 

*course* .. helping you out buddy.

 

Look for yourself-I don't see any 5 lug there, do you? We talking about the same wheel?

I wish rota made a mugen MF10 knock off. I also hate the rota center cap and that's why I would just paint them all black or just take them off each wheel.

Buying expensive center caps for your cheap wheels is umm....stupid.

 

Yep.

sack-who would buy the "Circuit 10's" if they existed.

 

 

do you understand that they will look like mf8 noy mf10's GOD that a dumb *** idea

 

 

if you don't like the center caps, then either take them off completely or paint them so they're blank.. or buy the REAL mugens if you're so concerned about people knowing you have rota knockoffs.. and i'm sorry, but replacing your rota caps with mugen ones IS stupid and IS a rice move..

you see a cavalier with a Type-R on it, and it's referred to as rice.. you see something that is NOT mugen with a mugen logo on it, that's rice as well..

added note: I have nothing against Rota wheels whatsoever.. i own a set of Rota Slipstreams.. i don't like my centercaps either, so i didn't put them on.. but I have never and will never try to pass them off as spoons.. i'm glad i got great wheels at a great price and am more than happy to explain to anyone who asks why I didn't spend the $1000 on spoon wheels..

 

mugen centercap will not fit rotas... i think 98 accord ex centercaps might fit if shaved a bit on the sides..

my suggestion.. run no centercaps

 

Hmmm...I guess I won't post pics of my helmet

-Tommy who owns a riced out helmet.

 

haha.. i meant more of automotive parts, but i guess it applies to that as well.. lol..

 

do what you like.......it is all about the bling! Mugen, Spoon, J's, ex.
