My local tuner shop is selling a set of Speedy Slipstreams for $400 while the Rota Slipstreams are for $440. They look exactly the same to me. Anybody here who have Speedys? Is the name Rota worth the $40?

yes

 

Rotas have proven themselves to be quality wheels.

In the great scheme of things, that 10% could make you or break you.

 

i have a set,they are flat black like rotas and say speedy racing in yellow/red? if thats them i have them in 16" on toyos,have no complaints about them.......stickers can be removed

 

red and yellow stickers? that's the one i'm referring to. 15" are for $400 and 16" are for $480. how much did you get yours for? doesnt the sticker leave any mark?

 

MotorMatrix has Speedys on his car. He took the stickers off and you cant even tell. they look good.

 

well, Speedy Racing is a ghey name, and I'm so damn insecure about whats on my car, I wouldn't run them. That being a joke, I'll get some rotas until speedy gains a name for themselves. just my .02

 

i had g-racing suzu's on mine and i am all about function over form.
its a name. so what?

 

...or they're really the same wheels, but sold under a different name.

You can find Rota Slipstreams for less than 400 shipped.

i have them also actually i have two sets one set 17" on the 2001 civic and 15" on the 92 hatch

 

Go for the Rotas man, you'll be happy you spent the 40 extra $'s

 

Go for da rotas, thats what i'll be gettin SOOOOOON ! !

 

why would you go knockoff speedy's of knockoff rota's? they dont make them anymore anyways, get the rotas

 

rota shitstreams are $440 for 15's, now? when i bought mine when they first came out, i paid $411.00 shipped.

i thought the price would have went down, not up...

 

i wouldn't get them just because the name sounds so goofy.

 

knock offs of knock offs, pretty funny.

 

I'm gettin some WTDR Spitstreams, they're knock-off of the ever-so-popular speedy racing slipstreams! IM AssPenny about these ultra-cool wheels! (don't IM him, this is a damn joke)

 

just pay the extra FortaY!.

 

Knock off's of Knock off's, now spoon can laugh at Rota...

The speedy's have a yellow sticker on them that looks like the font of the new spoon sw388's with a yellow sticker on their... If that makes sense... I would rather spend 40 for knowledge of a decent quality wheel, who knows, I bet speedy's manufacturer makes rota's as well. Have you seen Rota Wheels web site, oh my god, it's the worst thing I've ever seen, rota must have been started by a 12 year old girl...

 

I would pay the extra 40 for some rotas. With the exception of the guy in the wrx with the attacks I have yet to see a set crack or break.

40 dollars would be worth the extra security.
