Ok I need your opinions and help!

I want some white Rota grids for my WW Evo 9.

I was going to order off Wheeldude.com cause they seem to be pretty well known and respectable.

However I want to stick with 17's, I know 18's look better on Evos but I'm hard headed and want to stick to 17's for performance reasons.

Anyways I found these on Ebay

It's just they seem too cheap. I know Rota is a fake wheel but on wheel dude they are around 800(still cheap but not 600) or so..I'm just hoping These aren't "fake" Rotas. I know Rota grids are fakes of Volks etc, but I dont want a fake of a fake. If They are legit Rotas then I'm going to go ahead and buy them, but something about being only 650 and since It's ebay I wasn't sure.

Appreciate the feedback

My buddy crashed his civic with rota slip streams, and.he bought one off eBay, and it was a rota. And let's be real, who's gonna knock off a knock off

Those are real... Well err a Rota lol. I've ordered wheels off eBay before. Usually cheaper. Go for it.
Plus Rotas are tested so at least it's a semi-safe wheel

No offense but if you're worried about performance then the least of your concerns should be whether to get 17 or 18 inch wheels. Aren't Enkei's about the same price but much stronger and lighter. I'm thinking the RPF1's in particular.
The grids do look good but they're heavy, trust me I had a set of 18's on my built Sti and when I switched them for a set of Volk RE030's it was like I had left the E-brake on with the Rota's

I have always heard good feed back from Wheeldude.com..My wheel's came from there and even worked with the previous owner to get the perfect offset combo!

But as some have said they are still rota's at the end of the day so performance wise i may look into going another route for weight reason's and endurance on a track
