They're knockoffs but I think their manufacturing process is different. One would actually have to be personally in front of the 2 wheels to see the slight differences. Like the rim on the Work is smooth compared to Rota's (has a slight ridge) etc etc.

...because I love it. (crazy)
+1, my Grids look amazing, out of all 4 rims, only one has a small defect which is unnoticeable unless you're looking for it.
Yeah, they make copies of a lot expensive wheels.
I'd rather have a rota copy and have a nice turbo setup over just volks. Like wagon said, unless I'm mad ballin, the works and volks can stay on the shelf, gimmie some rotas.
Haha, you know they even make the TC rims? lol.

Yes but it's companies like Rota's that are putting the honest companies that develop and do R&D work making the style. I don't know if I'd ever buy Rota's for that very reason.

it is easy to steal a look, but if you want function as well (ie light weight and strenth) then there is only one way to go.
it is kinda like all show no go...(no offense dub
)
they each have their place though.

even reverse engineering you have to put some of your own work into it... especially if they're using a different manufacturing process (I assume they are)
lol its cool, I don't track nor autox so there really isn't a reason for me to put out for the real expensive thing, it would actually just make me look stupid to have expensive 3k light weight forged wheels on a car that never tracks, races, autox and that is slow as dirt anyways.
