If you have reps, just leave them as reps. Dont try to pretend to have "real wheels." Thats just me though.

I think that why i just assumed they were knock offs.
Everytime ive seen TE's on a tC its been in pretty horrible sizing.

And as far as the knock off vs real debate.
People buy real deal stuff because its proven to be stronger and they like supporting companies that support the "scene" back.

Without the OG companies Rota and all those other companies wouldnt even have any styles to copy off of.

But i guess now days its just about creating a trendy car as quickly and cheaply as possible.

^Yea I agree. I mean I wish I could afford some real Works but reality is I can't being a college student. So I have torques but I'm definitely not going to throw Work stickers on them.

Nothing wrong with reps. But rocking reps as if they are real with stickers and centercaps, and calling them real, not okay.

However that tC2 does it for me. Potential.

The car was posted on Stancenation.com FB page. Like hoodie showed, the black TE37s have the red pin on them. I think he just got the Varrstoens and threw the Volk stickers on them.

Some people dont really care about performance. They care about styles and looks.

Unless he got them and powder coated them black along with the center caps.
You can obviously tell the one that hoodie showed is a replica. But the varrstoen...

Yea they could be real. I was just guessing fake because they look like varrstoen. The car looks nice though.. nice drop and colors. Rims look good real or fake.

and for a DD, what's wrong with that? this debate has been had over and over again. as for me, i don't see the need in spending all that money for real miesters (but i would kill for some) so i can justify getting rota d2's which are expensive for my not so large budget. if they look nice and are reliable, f it. who cares


EDIT:
not trying to start a war or flame anyone, just stating my opinion.

The line between "legit" and "fake" is starting to fade and less people are starting to care. You should see all of the high end companies that are starting to run Rota's on the track, and the numbers are growing. Honestly, if you think non-biased for a moment and compare bang-for-the-buck, you can't blame them. Honestly, IMO, if you're running Volks just for looks and not on the track, you've defeated the purpose of the wheels anyways.
