I can't help that you feel threatened by a "noob" that has nice things, gasp! and has car knowledge without bowing to the "old Z members." I've been a member of, oh about, 15 car enthusiast forums, I'm not new to any of the things you guys speak of around here. Does that make me better than anybody? Of course not, but don't talk down to me, you have no room to speak, that's for sure.
Kind of hard to say I "overpaid" when, well you have no idea what I paid. Your credibility is zilch buddy, stop assuming everything, it just makes you look the idiot.

and threatened? are you serious? get a clue man, you are a joke and I the only way you could threaten me is if you actually knew what you were talking about. which you don't. soo... yeah.
and what I meant by the overpaid comment is that all BBS rims are overpriced. so therefore you overpaid.

Oh and I like Celine Dion, Kenny G, and N Stink, so I dislike you even more for telling me you like death metal. "Yo momma..."

so again, you now admit that you owned a Civic, and you were making fun of me by telling me I should get a Civic, therefore making fun of yourself.
smooth move. you should just stop cause it's almost not funny anymore. I am feeling more sorry than amused (it's like a needle gauge and it keeps dropping).

Anybody that says a BBS wheel is overpriced and then goes and pays the same for a Volk wheel is retawded. So far:
1) I spent too much for a set of wheels you have no idea what I paid
2) I can't say I owned a car because it was stock
3) you're proud of looking like a tool in your username and avatar here
4) You support Rotas, the worst wheel made
I think that about sums up a qualty guy like yourself...yet I'm sure you're and Freak's little pea brains are thinking I'm "pwned" now.

And for the record, so all the readers are clear. You're arguing with someone that A) Actually drives a real car B) doesnt post like a little bitchboy in every thread C) actually backs up his shiz in the exercise forum, and D) doesnt post in a car forum about others advice with his wife....fukn tard.

Funny, because you were preaching the superiority of pressure cast wheels to Rota's without knowing that Rota wheels were pressure casted themselves.
I thought "pressure casted" wheels were superior according to you?

This is obviously a lose lose battle, you guys like a inferior quality wheel, or others feel the need to jab personal attacks in, great. But my statement still stands that Rota makes an inferior product. But hey, there's tons of members here that run them, Toyo tires, and Injen products (and I think all of those are inferior products I'd never run on my own car, my opinion, you can have yours). I'm o-u-t.

I'm waiting for you to actually explain your position instead of just stating it over and over. Seriously, what do you know about how Rota makes wheels? Tell me you have experience in the process of making wheels first hand.. tell me you've ninja'd your way into the factory in the middle of the night and saw them melting babies down to make Rotas. Anything, tell us what you know, not what you think.

This forum is overrun with elitist brand-name-whoring know-nothings. They claim to know why a product is "better", but really base their "knowledge" on nothing more than what they're told is nice, and a price tag. These are the same people that will spend $2500 on an oil cooler because it has ARC spray painted on it. They're the same people that claim that two turbos are always better than one. They're the same that insist that all rota wheels are crap, even though they know little of the circumstances of the 5-10 images of broken wheels on the web.
They're no better than the kiddies on streetfire.net or youtube who say that 350z's are slow pigs of cars that can be beat by stock altimas.
All are equally ignorant.
No one is saying that Rota is as good or better than wheels like Work or Volk. They're sayign that they're good enough for 99.9% of the owners on these forums. If I can launch with 500+whp on rotas and a set a drag radials, and people can run on road courses and autocross tracks with them on a weekly basis, then they're certainly good enough for you cruising down to the local junior high to pick up a date.

I know someone that spun out on the freeway doing about 60. Smacked into one of those concrete jersey barriers. One of the rear wheels took all the impact. The lip was severely bent, but the wheel did not crack AT ALL. Suspension suffered 0 damage.
The wheel? PIAA Super Rozza 19x10. This quality 2pc cast wheel held up like a champ.
The same person sideswiped a curb doing about 30. The front corner of the car climbed up the curb, and that front wheel ended up on the sidewalk. The wheel shattered. All 7 of the spokes separated from the barrel
The wheel? Axis Se7en Mod 19x8. Results for this cheaper 1pc cast wheel shouldn't surprise you.
