Mine came on the car and having had them removed quite a few times, they're standing the test of time perfectly. No corrosion, cracks or dings. I've bought cheap alloys on the past and they are a nightmare for poor coatings, weak metal etc.

I have Rota somethings on my scooby, and they are holding up OK I suppose, but the quality difference between the Rota and the Genuine Rays TE37s I have (Rote grids) is night and day, the rays have been on my starlet since 2000 and are just getting to the stage of they could do with a refurb but are still passable.

The Rotas on the scooby which are only 4-5yrs old, and done less than 20k are in dire need of a refurb and have been for over a year.

Plus the weight of the rotas compared to the Rays is astounding, they are not "lightweight" in the slightest lol. Its not until you have hold of some proper lightweight forged magnesium JDM wheels you will notice the quality
