Both are of Filipino descent and both started wheel companies, those are the only things related between the two guys that I can think of. I have been following RJ De Vera for close to 20 years since my old Honda days and his first magazine featured Integra back in the late 90's. He was with Superstreet Magazine for a long time before creating RO_JA and he also designed and built the Boost Mobile RX-8 back in the day and many other cars as well. IIRC, RO_JA wheels were/are built by Rays and are somewhat pricey.

Man I can't believe how the import scene has grown.

Regarding the wheels, I believe they're Miro Type 112 rather than the AG's.

If it makes you feel any better Lucky, 90% on the guys that post in this thread hate my car and call me ricer. They even hate on it because there's too much stretch, poke, and camber.
and this is the aggressive wheel fitment thread, mind you
Even though I'm not a fan of how your car looks, just do you, don't let them get to you. It has potential, everyone has to start somewhere.
