    Obviously the line is different for different people.

    For me it's an issue of quality and craftsmanship.

    CCW has put together a quality 3 piece wheel that is light, affordable, and looks great. As far as I've seen the quality is top notch. The BBS wheels are also a motorsport application and not available on the public market.

    I have a problem when companies copy a product and cut corners when it comes to build quality, craftsmanship, and finish.

    Just my personal opinions though...we're all entitled to them.

    None of those have 'subtle' changes. Almost everyone who has an eye for wheels can spot those fairly major differences.

    Plus, which one of those companies has taken an inspiration and made their own forged concave, 3 piece splits out of? Or KEEP designing their own forged/3piece/race lines? That's the difference. The niche markets are completely different if you compare Rotiform to another 'rep' wheel company.

    True, true.
    It looks like it has BBS stamped on the center, though.
