Rotas are not fakes. Fakes are the rims you see on ebay with volk stickers etc, and those BBS replicas. Those are the wheels you should be weary of quality...
Sure i'd rather roll on a set of $3k volk TE37 but i dont have the money for that, i dont want 2nd hand wheels (because even if theyre volks they can be bent or cracked and its the risk you get with buying 2nd hand shit), i'm running stretched tyres and i do like 500km/week. The quality of rotas are most likely not as good as volks but they wont be breaking in daily driving conditions... if you hit a massive pothole with stretched tyres, you will **** your rims up, regardless if theyre expensive volk forged 1pc wheels, stockies, or fake wheels...
Some of you need to check your heads when you throw the word "fake" "copy" etc around. there are many wheels that share the same design.. Work VS-XX is similar to a specific BBS wheel.. work meister S1 is basically the same as a wheel that SSR offers... Rotiform TMB are basically the same design as Gotti wheels
