Rota produces 25,000+ wheels a month, many of these wheels are for OEM manufactures like Toyota, Ford, VW, Mercedes, etc.. here in the Philippines. I was just at a big Philippines OEM car show where Toyota was premiering there new 2009 Vios car featuring a wheel known as the "Rota Tarmac 2", a wheel that we have sold tons of in the US for the Subaru market. Also as seen on the my350z forums, there are tons of cars running Rota P45R, Rota Torque, etc.. for the past couple years with no failures due to manufacture defects. In fact I've only seen one post where someone cracked a wheel and it was due to extremely low tire pressure (very dark ring around the center of the tire) and then hitting a pothole.

Rota wheels have proven to be quality wheels time after time.

Nice. Did you ever get those pics posted of their testing facilities? Or was that just more posturing?

Ok, here's your explanation

This happened after 3 laps at Nur in a 500 hp Civic, the tires were Toyo R888, the car had Tarox 10 pot big brake kit.

This is were bent wheels hit the calipers....pretty painful.

I don't know about you, but I don't see wheels with twisted spokes every day. Oh and I am not saying Rays won't break, I am not their fanboy, I am just saying all the little things Rota does on cutting the cost of production have results (how come you hear only about Rota having quality issues?). But again I don't care, if someone is cheap it is his/her own decision.
