I don't post often here, and I very rarely get involved in the debate about fave vs. real wheels, but I feel like I kind of want to give my two cents here.
I completely agree with those who say that rota and other knock-off brands are capitalizing off off the designs and r&d of the major wheel designers. The "quality" brands like Work, Volk, BBS, etc. put a ton of money and thought into their designs, and they deserve the profit and credit for their work. However, I'm not sure to what extent rota et al. are cannibalizing the sales of the real big names. I haven't seen any concrete numbers or analysis from knowledgeable industry analysts on the topic, most of what I read is just the speculation of random people on internet forums, most of which I wouldn't necessarily consider very authorative on the subject. Sure, there are people on the forums who are very educated when it comes to the industry, but most are simply repeating the same lines they have read over and over on the internet.
It would really surprise me if there is a huge demographic out there that would chose to buy the real thing for many thousands of of dollars, but opt out for the cheapos instead. I'm SURE it happens some; I just think that most of the people who buy rotas wouldn't be able to afford or simply wouldn't want to spend the money on brand name quality wheels in the first place. I could be totally wrong on this though.
Anyway, I wouldn't personally run rotas on my car. I would much rather spend the extra money on the real thing. And I totally sympathize with people who absolutely **** brands like rota; they have a lot of legit reasons to. The thing that bothers me is when people start to throw insults and heavy criticism at those who chose to run replica wheels. We are all this scene together and we all have a passion for cars, so why trade insults like that? In other words, **** on the manufacturer if you want, don't **** the kid who runs rotas. Can't we all get alonghaha
