[bakerdd]

I really like this car, I wish I could pull off white on white like you do but the powdercoating will make this even cooler. I even kinda like the headlights

I love how worked up people get over name brand wheels on here. Not everyone that CAN spend 4 grand on wheels wants to. I've spent enough on parts for my car in the last 3 months to buy some real BBS LM's but I just can justify spending over 2k (more like 4 for real LMs) on them. So I got knock-offs 10 months ago for less than a grand. Glad I did since I've decided to go down to 18s and ordered a new set of wheels.

Anyway, I went on a little rant but I like the Z with the white on white, but the blue will look good too. Build the car how you want, with what you want. You're the one paying the bills.

The point is that knockoff wheels steal money from the original designer and they are a lot less sound and reliable that real wheels.

Seriously? Steal money away? Because BBS is hurting for money because of Rota and XXR? Yeah, I'm sure. And of course they aren't as good as the more expensive wheel brands...that's why they are cheaper...Just like raceland coilovers are crap compared to HR or KW. Only a fool would think that something that costs half to a third of the cost of the more expensive brand could be the same quality. MY point is that not everyone is that worried about it. Its not like he is tracking his car, if he doesn't want to spend thousands on wheels right away but still wants something other than stock (or those ugly wheels his car came with) then who are you, me, or anyone else to say he is wrong for doing so? And from what I've seen in this thread I bet he ends up with some wheels later on that most of the people on here dream about getting. So whats wrong with running cheaper wheels until then? People on here, and in the "stance" scene in general are way to stuck up when it comes to wheel brands.

BTW, I'm not trying to put all this one you personally, take it as more of a blanket statement.

what I just said is what I was told about xxr by the upper members of this forum. When I say they steal money, I was told that replica designs are stealing money from the original company because they use THEIR designs to make money. Does it hurt the company? Idk. I don't know the whole situation. But it's like downloading music instead of buying it, it doesn't necessarily directly affect the artist, but as a whole, it does affect the artist and publishing company (please take that comparison lightly as I realize it's not exactly the same situation.)

again, everything I just said is what I was told HERE. So if i'm wrong, feel free to correct me.

also, keep in mind that i DO have xxr's and I like them.

Even the big brand companies "steal" designs from each other. You can buy wheels that look VERY much like BBS LMs from other big name companies so to me that sounds like a poor argument for off brand companies "stealing" money from the bigger ones. And the truth of it is, if it wasn't for the knock off wheels the people that cant afford or cant justify spending the large amount of money on real BBS wheels or whatever wouldn't just some how be able to afford them later on. They would do what people have been doing since aftermarket wheels came into existence...buy wheels they can afford. I used to have XXRs too, 20x10 006s on the 06 mustang I used to have. Had them for a few years, drag raced with them, raced back roads in NC with them, and took many trips to FL and back to NC when I lived there. Not a single problem. Sure they weren't as good as some volks or BBS wheels and I'm sure they were heavier, but they were still good wheels.
