a) i can't afford genuine rims. in the first place.
b) even if i could, i don't want to run the risk of smashing a 1000 dollar rim in a pothole..

To me, i can't see the advantage of buying genuine when mine look almost identical and i'm happy with them.. sorry if MY OPINION offended you
again, this is my opinion only.. everyone is entitled to one, even me
well next time express "YOUR OPINION" in a more "NUETRAL" manner

instead of calling any1 who spends more than $500 a wheel fkn dumb

Imo, if you spend more than 500 bucks per rim for something that looks the same as a copy that is cheaper (not nescessarily inferior)... either you're fkn dumb, have way too much money or both. But that's just my opinion.
ive always thought any1 that buys fake wheels is ......................, but yeh, i dont say it

the point is, its not just about looks, its about the material used, the forging methods, the heat treatments all these things add up to make a superior wheel

u want to talk about sydenys shit roads causing damage to wheels, thats y u wouldnt buy genuine???

well, have u ever considered the possibility of wat will happen to fake wheels made of low quality material and prepared, fabricated and heat treated in the rong way when they go over a pot hole?

they could fall apart, a massive crack could go straight through them and shatter the whole wheel, who knows

but there is definetley less, MUCH less chance of this happening with a genuine jdm wheel, as they are much much higher quality....imo, the worst that can happen, is a minor dent that can be fixed

not only are they tougher and stronger, but they are also quite a bit lighter than the copy, making ur car feel less like a truck than it would with 15kgs a piece copys...

anyway, again, u dont have to listen to wat i say, i couldnt care less, ur giving ur opinion, and im giving and justifying mine
