I might be purchasing set of sp1s and i know they'll probably be real SSR's, but is there a way to tell a difference from rota d2s by just looking at them. Ive never seen neither of those rims in person so I don't know I can't tell by the pictures. The rims doesm't come with center caps or decals so is there a an imprint on the back of each rim?

 

yes,

Inside the rims you should see a sticker from SSR with the brand and offset specs. Also the valve stem cap are imprinted SSR also. Real SSR lip finishes are polish aluminum.

Hope this helps.

 

The spokes on SSR sp1 rear wheels are flat and do not stick out. its actaully spaced inwards from the outer lip. The spokes on Rota d2's stick out as far as the lip on front and rear rims.

 

the spokes sticking out way further is the easiest indication they are fake.
