Because I used to have EBC rotors. Doesn't really matter though, it's not like it's a race car. And the Illest decals, JDM Noob decal, etc. and replica wheels kill it for me. Close though, maybe in time he will really pay attention to the details.

Who said you have to spend 5k, Work has multiple offerings under 2k brand new, used can be had for even cheaper.

I have owned two pairs of immaculate Volks and together I have not paid $5,000.00 for both sets. Running what you want but don't say you love Rota's when all they are is copy cats of someone else designs. That is why I got rid of my last set, now there are a million companies with the same exact design. Plus, once you get into this type of thing you really can tell the difference so it cheapens things.

What gets me is guys with $25,000.00 in a build and then they run varreston's with fake Volk decals on them. IMO, we owe it to the legit companies to resist and save for proper wheels so new designs can be produced.

Yeah there are a few companies that offer forged wheels and original designs for well under 2k for a set of proper 18's.

Exactly, don't buy replica's. They diminish the hard work the original company put into R&D and designing them. Besides they look so much better than replica's, you can see it from across the parking lot.
