Yup, I'm waiting for all the Volk fanboy's to start bashing this thread and wheeldude. I really don't understand why they waste their time comming in this thread or all Rota Threads, and that's just an ******* move on their part. Wheeldude is trying to sell his products through the forums and those a$$hats come in and just bash on somebody's products like that? Not cool, how would they feel if they were in the shoes as wheeldude? Seriously some people need to grow up... 
The truth of the matter though is during economic times like this, inferior goods (economics term not that the product is completely horrible) tend to sell really well. Good examples would be Coca-cola vs. store brand cola etc. Couple that with the fact that the owners of 350z's are getting younger by the day due to the price drop on the vehicles and it's just a recipe for lower quality products being thrown on similar to the kids over at honda-tech. I'm sure replica companies sales are doing just fine if not better than before during this recession and with the influx of young blood in the 350z community. Either way, money talks and bs walks which is why the forum allows this to go on. If wheeldude pays his vendor fees, that's all they care about with all ethical issues aside. That is a whole entire topic aside from this though.

what, no 19s?
Do you have an ebay account that sells stickers from another company that will be direct stick ons?
If not I might think about getting it setup, who here would like to have another company's sticker that can go right on top of these wheels to make them the real deal?
Anyone here able to make this sticker for me?

LOL sadly some people have done something similar already. The thing that people don't realize is that messes it up for everyone else with authentic products. It is someone's own prerogative to purchase whatever they want for their car, but when the act also hinders other people's situations it's pretty messed up. People that put authentic Volk stickers on their Rotas makes Mackin Industries (Volk Wheel distributor) a lot more stringent on who they sell replacement stickers to because of this! A person who paid a premium to purchase a quality product should not have to jump through extra hoops because someone decided to put volk stickers on some Rotas.
For example, some lowlifes choose to risk their own lives by driving around with no insurance while the rest of us who pay insurance premiums also have to pay extra for "uninsured motorists" coverage. 
In both cases, it's just not right that we have to pay for their stupidity, selfishness, and disregard of how their actions effect others.<embed src = "http://www.xtranormal.com/players/jwplayer.swf" width = "500" height = "350" allowscriptaccess = "always" allowfullscreen = "true" flashvars = "height=350&width=500&file=http://tmpvideo.xtranormal.com/highres/20090324/a4a257f2-18a8-11de-bd3d-001b210acd5f_7.flv&image=http://tmpvideo.xtranormal.com/highres/20090324/a4a257f2-18a8-11de-bd3d-001b210acd5f_7_0.jpg&searchbar=false&autostart=false"></embed>

I think most of us understand that Wheeldude is just trying to make a living. However, when the income is coming from a company such as Rota that blatantly steals ideas/designs from other companies for their own profit, the concept of trying to make an "honest living" sort of goes right out the window. Reference a basic list of how much "stealing" Rota does below. This is not the case of Robin Hood here guys. Making an honest living is one thing, but when it involves indirectly stealing from others, there naturally is not much sympathy in people's hearts. I believe the people bashing his business practices would find another product to sell or do something else to make an "honest living" if they were in his shoes.
The truth of the matter though is during economic times like this, inferior goods (economics term not that the product is completely horrible) tend to sell really well. Good examples would be Coca-cola vs. store brand cola etc. Couple that with the fact that the owners of 350z's are getting younger by the day due to the price drop on the vehicles and it's just a recipe for lower quality products being thrown on similar to the kids over at honda-tech. I'm sure replica companies sales are doing just fine if not better than before during this recession and with the influx of young blood in the 350z community.

Let's just say that people will judge you base on what you purchase, and as simply put, if you want to "look" good, you might want to start looking good in people's mind and not just through the eyes:
