    I say get some good quality rims, Rota dont have the greatest reputation.



    This is pure gold!!!

    No, sorry man, I was just looking at some page about wheels, I think an American page, and this came up when discussing tyres prices and buying wheels that are cheap to start with, and ending up behind in the end due to lacklustre quality.

    Looks nasty, but in reality, the rims would have had to have been stressed out to the max. Wouldnt think this is a regular occurence by any means.

    This is to be expected from a company that only really makes copies of other companies wheels.

    Yes I noticed that as well, and its on a number of points, let alone the surface you can't actually see in the pic!

    I reckon he hit something hard at speed and the whole rim shat itself, but dam is that nasty!

    Tempe might be able to sort the Lensos out for you.

    But don't get tyres or fit the wheels there - They are known to be dodgy as.

    SEXY, excellent choice!

    I look forward to seeing them on a car, those would look really good on a ml4 golf/bora as well. Where did you get them from again?
