The D2 is just a ripoff of the Work Meister S1.

I guess with that said, Rota makes an ok throwaway wheel.

TRUE, but not all of us can afford $650 a wheel. :O
Besides, just for looks, can't beat $900 shipped.

Is it me or do the spokes look a little too round!?! The Evo has an angular shape and i don't think these wheels having that much of a rounded spoke looks very good on an Evo. A 350z maybe, but not an Evo!!

Also, after looking at the wheels on the car, I thought that if the spokes were more concave, they would look much better!

concave spokes would not allow them to clear the brembos.

I guess you have to see it in person, the wheels do look good.
