these really are not for the drift market.
as a few pics show on DW they can look very cool on evos and scoobys.

not my cup of tea at all but on the right car they look good

maybe if they were half the price , but you could get some serious wheels for that money , even 2nd hand ones !!

they look good on subarus but they the original enkei wheels and the enkei wheels nearly cost the same as the copy!!

not a wheel for the "drift market"

i think they just ran out of ideas and put that bit around the inside through the spokes and made a a different looking wheel rather than a very plain boring one, dont like them at all

I think they rock, I still wouldnt get them cos their rotas, would rather the original enkies, there is a cool looking white r34 with white ones of these on and it looks well. would agree though these arent drifty wheels. more time attack

dont think they're the same, if its the r34 im thinking of, they're defo not the rota copy, as its around a long time!

At the same time, they suited the car down to the ground!

I love when people bring those pics up, there all anchient and basically the only pics there are of broken Rota's... If they were actually shit I'm sure there would be a few more pics then that :rolleyes:

this is a true grip racing wheel design knocking the design is on your own head its not about fitmeant or " HERRAFRUSH1!NESS " or SillIest here its about a quality wheel design!

note how the rota rims were all warped backwards in that pic some1 put up..

they didnt chuck the link ring in there for nothing - its for more braceing.

they being the original engineers such as ENKEI etc..

However i think ROTA are rubish an purely for cheap thrills any heartfelt particular enthusiast wouldnt own a set bar they wana wreck them

fire away, but i bet you can find broken pics of any brand wheel, also seein as there seems to be more people runnin rota's then anythin else theres obvioulsy gonna be higher proportions of broken and warped ones.

I'm not sayin there good, there just not a shit as everyone makes out ;)

For a fwd drive car they might be okay (pulsar ect) but to be honest I can't see their market extend past that. It is one of their bigger let downs of late IMO.
