im not an idiot on the jdm bandwagon, so i'll say it. they look pretty decent. i know not all like the original Advans, but the rotas seem to be a decent copy.

all you ****ing queers and your "fake wheels make me cry" bullshit just need to shutup! EVERYONE COPIES EVERYONE, PERIOD.

the wheel design itself, is ugly to me, i just had to yell at the emo ***gots whining because they can't afford real wheels, but have a hard on for hating "fake" ones

Sorry, these wheels just ruin the SA3R's uniqueness. I don't care if you're a "budget builder", replicating something just because it's cool, in an attempt at trying to "be cool, whilst saving money" is pathetic.

PS. Those are Super Advan's on the Subaru.

Cant agree with ya sorry....
There knockoffs by design but your not paying to have the orriginal but rather a better made product. I Personally dont care if there advans or rotas if they look good Ill buy them and if that means saving some green all the better.
