You've answered your own question there.
Well not really, because there are a lot of rims out there that look better imo.
That's why it makes the fact that so many people have gone for ROTAs so strange.
Yes really. You said 'it's strange that so many people buy Rota's' and followed it up with 'they do suit the car though'.
Which is why so many people have bought them.
I'm still going with Not Really on this mate.
They suit the car...yes.
But so do many other rims....and what surprises me, is that out of all of the options that Zed owners have to choose from, so many have gone for the same wheel.
If there was only 1 set of rims that suited the Zed and that happened to be the ROTAs, then you'd have a point, but from a statistical basis, the odds of so many different people all coming to the same conclusion from such a vast array of options, is as I said originally, "a bit strange".
If a wheel suits a car and is a reasonable price then people buy it - the post piccies up and when people want to consider a new wheel they search for piccies to see what it looks like.
Rota's look good and therefore rather than take a chance on another wheel where fitment or piccies are not available they go for the safe option.
Plus as said above they almost look OEM which is often the preference for some people than going a bit 'out there'.
