questions is- does the rim looks simliar to spoons?
do you not know what spoon rims look like or something? if you did, then you wouldn't be asking this question.

and you want to get a knock off of spoon rims when you dont even know what spoon rims look like?

r-1's are poser rotas are poser spoons....jsut SAVE YOUR MONEY and buy the real thing a while from now instead of the shitty copy right now. instant gratification isnt the answer.

regardless of image or copying or any of that trivial stuff, i got 11.8 lb rims for 300 bucks, perfect for my autox habit. i see nothing wrong with them, as long i understand my rims are "copies" big deal they get the job done. no thin spokes so no breakage, very durable. i got better stuff to worry about like driving rather then "is someone on HT gonna harp me cuz they look similar to something else?".

why do i have to pay even more for the real thing when someone made something that looks exactly the same? just becuase SPoon is know to be "JDM" and crazy, but just because of that does that mean you have to get it? who the **** is going to know the difference?
even though i own rota and i hate when people try to flame, i do the know the difference between rims. bottomline is as long as you understand the copies are cast and real are forged, and that the real ones are wayy stronger then its okand a lot of people can tell the difference. i wouldnt worry so much about what looks like what. its not a big deal but the rota copies are the "best". a lot of cats try to flame, but usually its kids who dont use* their real **** anyway so it doesnt bother me. (no disrespect for those that do put their **** to use and are modest).

you can totally tell the difference between the real spoons and the rotas.. the rotas are like glossy black, as for the spoons, they are anodized black..

obviously you're not going to know the difference since you dont even know what spoon rims look like according to this original statement by you:
another questions is- does the rim looks simliar to spoons?
LOL, buying rims because they're "jdm" yet you dont know what they look like.

obviously you just jump to conclusions to make people look stupid or sound dumb.
obviously i dont do that because there is no need to. because you make yourself look stupid and sound dumb all by yourself. you're doing a great job!

why be cheap when it comes to your car, the wight and quality of spoons will definately be better than rotas or now r-1s....seriously....

if youre buying them for looks, id say the look of those rims is "im wish i had spoons"

i wish i had spoons too, but i dont settle for somthing inferior, ill just wait.

actually, i thought rotas would have cost 500+ but SMZ GSR is getting me a good deal.

rota slips- steel grey w/polish lip. $400

the r-1s costed $380.

thanks for ur mean replies. it helped a bit.
