Why do Rotas get such a bad rap. Yes they are cheap wheels but how bad are you going to cringe when you dump 2-3 grand on wheels and the curb check be shit out of them. My brother bought a set of Rota Shakotans for his AE86 and "regretted" not getting better wheels. So he bought a set of Work Equpis and then bent one of the lips and now regrets spending the money on them.

Rotas do the job just fine, look good, and you don't have your sphincter clench up if you have to replace one. I think baller wheels are good for going to meets or car shows, but to daily, I'll stick with something I'm not afraid of ruining. Hell, daily the cheapies and then have nice wheels set aside for when you do plan on going to meets/shows and what not.
/end rant.

Love your car btw. Maybe one day I'll see it in person us being from TX and all.
