If you think buying Rota's is "below" yourself then I think you have answered your own question.

If you think that you're too cool for Rota's, or if you think you'll hate your choice when your JDM buddies make fun of you, then wait for the real deal. You'll sleep better at night and you won't lose any H-T cool points.

dude dont let anybody tell you rotas are ****, they are nice wheels, they are affordable, good quality, and lightweight, best of all is peace of mind that you dont have to be scared to drive your car because you might **** up you 500 dollar rim, with a rota you can another one to your door in like 2 days for like a 100 bucks, its a smart rim for a daily driver, the only reason to get real gabs is to have bragging rights, and if thats what your all about, buying rims is the least of your worries

so true... thats why I have 14" blackies and the CP-Rs stays at home.

but if you want the real deal save up, if your car is your daily driver I would get some steelies or blackies for daily commute

Default Re: HELP stop me from buying ROTAS!!! (dFreezy)

comes down to 2 things..

1. are you going to be showing your car at shows?

if yes, buy the gabs for the gay *** show points.

if no, buy the rotas because it doesnt matter, red rims are ugly anyways so the brand name shouldnt be a factor.

2. are you going to be tracking your car?

if yes, buy the wheels that were obviously made for race purpose

OR

if yes, buy the rotas anyway and save the money to upgrade your car where it matters, i.e. suspension, brakes, and tires.

if no, buy whatever suits you better.. everyone loves to save money. especially if the extra money can buy more parts.
