look sexy though...

TE37 spokes are "flat" in S2k offset and doesn't look as exciting as on Nissan Z350/370.
You sir are quite right, hence the reason for retarded offsets on my toy.
I am so sorry but I have loved and loved those wheels,removing my arm without freezing it would less painful than getting rid of them.
Those, are not TE37s (for the benefit of this thread). I am reasonably certain you could sell a single genuine volk te37 and buy four replicas. The reason I don't know whether or not that's correct, is because I'm not interested in replica wheels.

Wheels, brakes, suspension and seats are safety equipment.

Nothing wrong with Rotas mate. Thats just a silly misinformed comment. Also Glen never claimed that they were genuine. Ask alot of UK drift teams what Rota are like. I doubt you'll hear any negative feedback on a wheel of this cost.

its just wheel whores who hate them because they sell pretty good replica's of the most popular wheels on the market that the everyday person can afford.

I haven't said there's anything wrong with choosing a replica wheel.. I explained why I have the opinion that I do.

I don't consider drift teams an unbiased example in providing evidence that a product is good. They get discounts on Rota products. Again, this is purely my opinion, i'm not trying to force it upon anybody else, i'm purely explaining why i've made the comment I have.

You aren't allowed express your opinion on here these days without some getting very upset.

I also have no real issue with Rota, although I don't like copies of most things.

I have no doubt that I will eventually get some TE37s if I can be bothered, as I don't really have a problem with using copy's .I just think that mine are good looking wheels whatever the name is on them..... Oh! You wouldn't get 4 replicas for the price of one genuine one ,I know because I have thought about it.
