No idea what stock tyre size for a EM1 is but plenty of nice tyres are available in 205/45 16. If you buy something good like RE01R or Dunlop Z1 then there is a good chance that they will cost more than your fake wheels. Every time someone buys a Rota slipstream a little Russian man dies of a broken heart, do you want to be responsible for that?

I don't care about the quality of the rim, they are a blatant rip off of another company's design. As a car and aftermarket part enthusiast I feel it is worth my time and money to support innovators, not a company that has built its name on emulating others wheel designs.

Get 205/45s in a nice tyre like the RE01R or similar, you wont regret it. Good tyres are by far the best performance and safety modification you can do.

Also, unbelievable.

I'd rather pay a little bit more and get value for money than base all my decisions on price.

Value and Price aren't the same thing.
