Nah, I cannot agree to that - even wheels designs are changing, there are new inspirations, new trends, new ideas and especially the technology is changing (huge influence of CAD modeling). I really like how Rays have restyled their TE37 to VR.G2, or the whole FiveAxis wheels line up.
^ there are some subtle difference between the Meister and SP1's, Meisters spokes are a bit more fatter then the Sp1. But feel free to add this to the list if you wish.
The centers are also way different in sizes due to the step sizes on the lips. A 19" Meister has a ~16" diameter piece while the SSR SP1 has ~17-18" diameter center piece with a much smaller step in the lip. The rivets on the SP1 also only go inbetween the spokes and are recessed while the Meisters go all around the perimeter and extend out.
The Falken RT 615's, although with my really tall sidewall (well compared to the stockers and other sizes out there) have a very stiff sidewall. Its a common and easily understood misconception that they would ride "soft" or fold too much while in a corner. However, per my experiance so far, they are much more predictable in either wet or dry. Definantly one of the best tires I have driven on, period!
I've had Continental, Michelin, BFGoodrich, Bridgestone and these really do give those brands a run for the money!
I reviewed each and every tire in this catagory and by far concluded the best non-biased and consecutive reviews went to the Azenis RT 615.
Thanks for the compliments guys! I love every minute of this car. Even driving in mundane daily traffic is a blast. Pretty much every day I either get really long stairs or thumbs up. I will get some better pics (high-res HD camera) soon. The camera I took these awful pics with was only 3 MP and about 5 years old

Not posing? Are you sure? Since when did the Rotas come in 18x10.5?
Similar, but not a direct copy (every twin 7 spoke wheel will be similar), I can give them some credit for that, as I don't know exactly looking wheel as Angel.
