i love how people post these, when those were obviously involved in some form of automobile accident. and im sure forged rays would have withstood the 80mph blow from that semi as well besides the one subaru where his rotas actually broke from a bad casting ON THE TRACK, and the countless pictures of HRE's (yes, HRE wheels suck) failing on the track, 99% of broken wheel photos are from accidents. not to take away from its humor, but it's unfair to label something like that in the 'knockoffs are shit' category because someone drifted into a curb in which no wheel would have survived. (yes, a forged wheel might have not split but it would still have bent and possibly cracked)
i just found the pic funny, personally i cant afford anything so i ride OEM
and the reason why i posted this up isnt really because they ripped off the wheel design, its because the actually labled it to try and match the real deal. At least Rota doesnt do that.
