+1 Rotas are fine on the street, but if you touge frequently I'd go w/the Konig's btw | ||

Nothing illegal at all Rota's are cheap because they use the cheapest manufacturing method (gravity casting) instead of forged (BBS, Volks, etc.). Konig actually uses Enkei's MAT (Most Advanced Technology ) on some of their wheels http://konigusa.net/nodisplay/mat-technology-wheel-process/. It's also called flow-forming, a compromise between gravity casting & forging in both strength & cost. Though to be fair, I'm not sure if the Konig Rewind is made using MAT technology...lol | ||

I've seen tons of wheels bent by curbing that shouldn't have had any issues. Monoblock for life. |

Thanks Tessou! This IS the technical section right? You'll like what we're doing at Project Hyperion & LSL Motorsports!
With ya there! Flow-formed wheels aren't bad either for those that don't want to shell out $$$ for Volks/BBSs. This post has been edited by Wufei on Jul 17 2014, 09:02 AM | ||||||

Track time? Meme images? AGREES WITH ME? I like this guy already! Yeah, Volks are a pretty penny, even being the third owner of my CE28N-TAs, I still paid more than any other set of new wheels I had my eye on. Totally worth it though. | ||
