In this case, the copies are actually sticking the Rota name on the wheel...directly impugning the brand rather than just lifting the style. Rota has actually built a somehwat valuable brand as producing "safe fakes"

I never said they were bad, just lower quality material, up to the owner to decide if he wants to spend much more for different material. And yes, the bad rep more so came from people buying other stickers and slapping them on the replicas.
