how much would anyone pay for brand new rims

[Jccck]

I wouldnt say rotas do the same job, have u seen them tests? jap spec wheels have much higher standards.

As in the are more robust if you crash? a wrecked rim is a wrecked rim to me. Doesnt matter if its buckled or cracked. Im not going to bother repairing it and I cant sell it for much either.

But on the other hand I have noticed a difference with light forged wheels. Whether the wank factor and drive improvement is worth it for the extra pennies? up to you.

WORK/Rays are slightly stronger, and a little bit lighter than their ROTA copies.
But do you 'really' need all that extra awesomeness when something 90% as good will do the job?
Sure you could argue that 90% isn't the best it could be, and support the legit wheels.

But a ROTA exceeds ALL requirements for road and even excessive track use.
Have you seen what ROTA sponsors? They aren't no cheap knockoffs.

I'll happily endorse ROTA because they make an amazing quality product that will suit everyone's needs.
But if you've got a fat wallet and want to feel that little bit more comfortable knowing you're rolling on the 'best there is'
Then please fork out $3000 for a set of TE37's.. Because i'll happily wear my GRIDs.
