I used to like Rota's until I seen a vid of a WRX autocrossing with Rota's, he was going around a turn and all the spokes snapped on the wheel. The hub was still bolted to the car and the rest of the rim and tire went flying off. You really do get what you pay for

Not that bad of an idea. Pays like 2 bucks in fees as compared to like 25.

"I live in the San Fran area so I don't need to get them shipped, Is there an address where I could pick them up?"

When I get back there is going to be a $20 rota wheel group buy

I think you would be a moron to not look at the shipping price before you bid on anything. He is just saving money of those gay *** ebay fees. Pretty soon ebay will catch on and find a way to stop that so they can make more money.

BTW, you can't jack up your feedback with only two accounts. One person can only give you one "unique" feedback. If I bought 100 items from you and left you 100 positive feedbacks you would only get "1" positive feedback.

Anyone who believes they can get rotas for 20 bucks should get scammed. Guys feedback is good. Don't see any on there saying he jacked 450 bucks so he's just trying to save a little cash on the ebay fees. Give him a break. You should always read an auction to the fulliest anyways.

He's also charging a 3.1% fee to cover Paypal on top of the bid price and shipping, which is against Ebay rules as well. This really pisses me off because WE DO follow the rules and pay the fees as outlined by Ebay. Nobody takes into consideration that you are getting WORLDWIDE advertising for your products for those fees!! Hell, we can't even advertise in our local Trading Post paper for less than $25.00!!

Sorry...I have PMS...

Oh - this is Rene' not Anthony!
