Vti-R Wanted, Help...

aww damn... does rota have a bad build quality or something?

Trawl through the yankee car forums for pictures of Rota's cracking/breaking.

Rota's claim to fame is in making replicas (a.k.a. copies) of famous, top grade wheels. And that's all they are good for, cheap copies. Every 'nice' or 'famous' Rota design you see is copied from a design of a top end wheel maker. Search the internet for pictured examples.

The Rota slipstreams are famously known as copies of the Spoon SW388.

You can get Rota copies of the TE37 too, they're called the Rota Grid!

But........ friends don't let friends buy Rota's.


Another suggestion for the OP, if you find a nice grandma's car, check for completeness of service records! She could just take it for regular oil changes in some cheap workshop, so the car ends up getting filled with unsuitable motor oil, and the mech could have overlooked major work like timing belt changes etc because the lil' old lady didn't tell him to do it.
