These are an old pair of factory BMW wheels that I had on our old 323Ci. Hit a 6" piece of granite at night time and couldn't see it.

Do you know how much I paid for my granite:wtf2: and now your hitting them on the road, no wonder its so expensive:icon17:

I agree on buying quality wheels, I would know. Drifted into a curb last year and the wheel was fine except for a little section that bent on the lip. Either way the forged rays on the 350z were fixable

Most people talk about quality of replica wheels, but for the most part a cast wheel is a cast wheel regardless if ROTA makes it or if WORK makes it. Most reps are not forged, so of course a cast replica of a forged wheel isn't going to be as light and as strong, but that goes without saying that WORK Emotion cast isn't as strong as a WORK Emotion forged. The problem isn't that replica's are poor shitty wheels, the problem is the business ethics behind blatantly ripping off designs from the upper tier companies, not just using similar designs, it's blatant copies to undercut the bigger names and sell the same look for a cheaper cast price. I don't support rep wheels but I don't think they are cheap dangerous wheels to drive on.

What Certs do the Chicaras carry? JWL? TUV? VIA?
Even Rotas are JWL.

Chicaras carry none:ugh2:

Chikara is pretty bad lol

I'm not saying every single rip off company. I'm sure there are ones with no certifications that are just plain **** all around.

Well Im with you on the ripping off part:tup:
