Pros: look good and cheap
Cons: none

These are a great wheel for the price and they have a good offset for my 02 WRX. With the $ I saved on these wheels, I was able to afford some so3\'s. I have put around 35k on them and I dont have 1 chip in the paint (unlike my hood).

Pros: Looks great and Much cheaper than most sets of rims out on the market.
Cons: None.

Though some people have said that Rota\'s may not be the strongest, this is my second set of Rota\'s and i have not had any problems whatsover with either set. I\'ve ran over many potholes and they still stand strong.

Pros: Looks good and better cornering
Cons: slightly heavier

Bought these for the low price and looks of the wheels, I have been happy with their performance. I do not track my car so I was not so concered about the weight difference from the 16s. I have the gunmetalic with the polished lip and there has been no damage to the finish in the 3months that I have had the rims on the vehicle.

Pros: price, design, color
Cons: cheap cast wheel, weight, rota brand stigma (a.k.a. copycat)

great wheels!
bought mine from Roo and have had no complaints.
i like the fact that the wheel they're a copy of isn't available in the US so they look semi-original for a Rota.
mine are gunmetal which blends well with my OBS two-tone silver/Ti paint colors.
some light makes it look like an exact color match, but the pearl on the OE Subaru paint changes that throughout the day.
they're not light, but i didn't expect as much from a cheap cast wheel, but they seem fairly strong for a low end wheel.
and the thick spokes are bold looking.
