A set of 15x6.5 Rota wheels that costs $300 in the Philippines is sold for $440 shipped on our site. Take in to account everything involved in transporting wheels in to the US, distributing, etc.. and you have that small increase. The Volk, Work, etc.. wheels have more markup than Rota's

Now the 18" sizes that you see here in the US are no where near $300 in PI, try around $700+ depending on the width. I was just there so I would know. When was the last time you visited Rota, never?
