D@mn, I wish I had known about these before I popped for the Ruff's. I'll bet a guy could remove those stickers and substitue some more authentic looking ones.....

Because Rota/Linea Corse owners are notorious for pulling stuff like this. Its comes with the mentality. You think Simann was bad, this BMW owner put BBS stickers/centercaps on his linea corse knockoffs
Whats even better is how many of the BMW people are fine with it even though the OP clearly states he put BBS stickers on his fake wheels, and justifies it by the "quality" of his replicas, which make them as good as BBS wheels

Whats even funnier, is that Wheeldude then went and edited out the BBS stickers from my friend's pics without his permission and posted them on the wheeldude website. I guess stealing wheel designs isn't really any different than stealing pictures

Why did I buy the real Volks when I could've saved so much money?!?!?! I'll still never understand people who own vehicles that deserve quality aftermarket putting knockoff sh*t on.

I do support knock off body kits - there's nothing wrong w/ that. as long as you don't troll around and claim the shiz is authentic and the end user spends the required shop time to make required adjustments. In fact the majority of people on this board that don't support knock off body kits are either a vendor or a sponsor, or is scratching the back of another of the prementioned. Vork though ?...come on - lets get real.

Rocking rotas and acknowledging they are rotas is WAY different than putting Volk stickers on a set of Rotas and pretending they are the real deal. If you think that that correlation is the same as replica body kits, then I think you are sadly mistaken, unless they are trying to pass the replica kit off as the real deal by purchasing authentic badges

knock off is knock off no matter what it is
you laugh at the wheels because they are not the same quality as the originals they were modeled after.... im sure the replica nismo kits are not quite as good as the real thing.... same thing, different products
authentic badges... like a nissan badge? i dont know many that want to rock a veilside badge
