Rota D2 or Work Meister Options

[Scosh]

Hey guys, Im thinking of buying a set of Rota D2's. Does anyone have them? I would like to see them on our celicas before I make a final decision. Also if anyone has Work Meisters, that would work too.

not trying to add fuel to this but think of the difference between rotas and work meisters as buying a replica bodykit (ie. zyclone front bumper) versus buying an authentic C-ONE front bumper. one is merely a copy of the other, with the more expensive one usually having better quality. it's up to you (the OP) to balance the two wheel choices and look at the cost:benefit ratio between one and the other.

but some other factors to consider that will help you decide which is best:
-the combination of diameter, width, offset with a 5x100 pcd that suits your preference
-availability of preferred wheel style and wheel characteristics (as stated above)
-wheel weight (of course, lighter is better)
-forged vs non-forged
-centerbore (hub-centric for quick installation and ensures rim is properly mounted to prevent wheel vibrations)
-compare the max load the rim can support (usually stamped on the inside of the wheel) (higher is better and is less likely to warp when curbed, but also heavier)

so do a bit of research and compare... then decide which is worth buying.
