J. Evins Icon : (15 March 2010 - 02:45 PM) Alright, this is the deal guys... I had hoped to have time to really work on promoting this site this year... but since early January I've had shoots and events on a near weekly basis. I just got picked up by a local group paid to shoot over 27 drift events this year, as well as being brought on at MotorMavens.com. Not to mention, I've got commitments to produce content for S3 Magazine (and squeeze in a bigger mag when I have the time like a true sellout) ... so the future of NoRotas I'm going to be pondering in the next few days.

Okay guys, just wanted to know your opinions on this matter. LOL see I really hate when people that have real wheels tell others that their cars suck just cuz there rolling on rotas. Now dont get me wrong, ive heard and understand the whole real vs fake thing but.... my point is do people who have real mugens buy patron instead of cheapo tequilla?

I mean i go to these parties where alot of guys with nice cars and they are drinking aristocrat.

Hell margaritas with patron are over 12 bucks! How about Great value bread, instead of sarah lee?

Or how about publix brand cornflakes instead of kellogs?


Walmart shampoo instead of Head n shoulders?

All this just to save a few bucks to buy that benen tie bar you want. And hell I wont deny any of this. Cuz I do every single thing i just mentioned above! lol haha I even have the rota version of mac n cheese! LOL

But the difference is that i dont bash on people that have rotas. But theres people that do and im sure they dont drink patron margaritas all the time. What do you think?

There is a difference between differently priced products of similar type and complete knockoffs. There isn't anything wrong with buying cheap liquor as opposed to expensive liquor... just like there isn't anything wrong with buying cheap wheels instead of expensive wheels. The difference is in buying a knockoff (an exact replica).

Point is... if Rota operated in the United States they would be sued into the ground for violating copyright laws. They are completely replicating another copyrighted design.

I don't bash on people who have Rotas or SportMaxx's, but I don't jock their cars either. I also let my opinion known if asked for it. But I don't bash on the person. I may say their rims are poop, but I don't say anything about the person. I will try to educate them about buying knockoff stuff though.

New designs from knockoff artists...

I'm cool with that, as long as the quality is there. Personally I've yet to hear about a Rota wheel breaking so for a car that isn't all about performance, I would buy some Rotas if they started designing their own shit and not copying others. If it was a car where performance was really important, I'd look for something lighter and stronger.

As for those Konigs, idk... They're a little different. Konig is alright in my book, if you're looking for cheap wheels. I personally don't usually like their style though.
