Why are Rota rims so cheap? are they good quality?

 

i think because every design is a knockoff of an original design and they are all made in korea. i just picked up a set of the tarmac 2's in royal gunmetallic waitin to get them put on, hopefully this weekend

 

actually rotas are from the phillipines, not korea

 

thermobox, keep me posted on how the look, congrats on the rims.

 

rotas are pretty strong. i ran 'em on my car for a while, and tons of ppl use 'em without problems

 

I just bought Rota SDR's and they look sweet. No problems yet, seem like its just a no name brand instead of buying the "cool" name brand.

 

We make tons of wheels for various brands, not just ROTA. Some of them are for the Japanese market and are branded with high end JDM brands. So basically what you are paying for is the brand name in some JDM wheels.

Of course, if you are talking about forged wheels, then that will really be more expensive. But if your talking about expensive casted wheels and ROTA. They are made the same way, with the same aluminum material as the expensive casted wheels
