hey wind dancing with the wolves thats your new name!!! check this out

i guess nick hogan should have bought volk wheels: he would have prevented his accident and he should have went with your tanabe gf springs and your azenis tirea!! since we wanna talk about flag ship cars!! your a bitch the only person that i can respect on the forum with volks is deedub because he went all out volk rims...hks suspension....and other good ****....not like your *** talking hella **** and down talking to people that can't afford the type of rims that you have!!

just because you saw this pic your gonna talk down to people that own rota's or sportmax? you havent really proved your point dancing with the wind whatever your name is? Your the one thats getting serious about the subject c'mon dude it's just the internet and you act like your volk rims are gonna prevent you from dying in a car accident. I want you to answer these questions about rota's since your such an expert after looking at this pic?

1. Is there any pending lawsuits against rota as a company?
2. Has there been any fatalities or people seriously injured because of their rota
wheels?
3. How fast was this car going when he got these rota's broke off? there is no way this person was driving cafefully as far as we know this guy might have been street racing loss control and hit a curb really hard!! This type of damage isn't gonna happend to a person driving normally!!

4. If rota's were so much of a danger and is unsafe don't you think that the department of transportation would have gotten involved with this.

Alot the stuff you can't really believe on the internet these day!! So far it seems that your a sucker for news on the internet!! unless it personally happends to you or a friends you can't just knock rota and that there unsafe or is coming from a reliable sourse....i'm not counting that dude from the scca!! i'm talk about pending lawsuits or reports of deaths linking it to rota wheels.


I need more facts then what you have given so far...the only thing that you have is a picture with who knows what the hell happends and a mission statement from rota and sportmax? i bet you can't even read volk's mission statement because it might be in japanese? lol

The way you phrased this was as though it were a fact. Sportmax = garbage. If this were something more serious (you were an advertiser, competitor, etc) you could be sued for libel. If it were to be phrased as an opinion you would have said "I believe..." or "My opinion is..." Sportmax = garbage. If a cop pulls you over you can tell him you "think he's a jerk" not "you are a jerk" (I don't recommend either though). Free speech vs libel/slander.

Now on the flipside, I don't care what wheels you "roll". Rotas have been around for a long time. That pic of the Subaru wheel has floated around the net since at least '04. Rota was very responsive to what happened and took care of the owner. I haven't heard of any faults since (just that same pic). Look on the competition forum here. The #1 B-Stock 8 in the country is on Rota's. https://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php...8&postcount=22

Lastly, when you say a company is garbage you'll have to back that up. NASCAR would never have entered into a licensing agreement if they were: garbage, dangerous, etc. http://www.sportmaxwheel.com/nascar_victory_614.html

Lastly, Mikeluvs8, use the edit button. Stop fragmenting your thoughts four posts in a row.

Thank You!! Good points that you brought up!! I completely forgot about the nascar wheels!! At the end of the day it all comes down to preference of the owner. I just thought that pic of that broken wheel was not really enough information to state that rota's were not good in quality!! There are too many factors that you have to consider when you see that type of damage on that wheel.
