Looks like even top Japanese wheel makers can copy designs
 
I know Rota wheels are hotly debated on numerous forums. And I know a lot of people like to leg hump certain Japanese wheel manufacturers for their "original wheels". But it seems that even those companies can copy wheels too. Take a look at these wheels made by Work.

They look like copies of Cragar S/S wheels to me.

Please tell me you're smarter than this, are you pissed because you can't afford them or? :lol:

And the Cragers are a copy of American Racing AEROs, TORQ and TORQ Thrust M wheels (which i am pretty sure is what on the mustang)

Hell, the Japanese and European "TIME ATTACK" look of putting the red/yellow pinstripe on the lips of black wheels came from NASCAR. The "TIME ATTACK" Look is actually the NASCAR look.

Rota is debated for tracing designs and quality/sizes of their cast wheels. What are you trying to prove?
