LOL at the guys on the boards.

They sounds like richer versions of the S chassis crowd.

I like this one though,

So many wheels, why destroy them? AC sucks, overpriced wheels. I have my own way to destroy wheels too. I just let my wife drive the car and surely she will curb the hell out of the wheels, thats why she drives an SUV LOL.

I love it. Don't fuck with Germans, especially when it comes to their vehicles.

and yes, as a former BMW owner, the BMW crowd is essentially a rich S chassis crowd. In fact, many of them (especially e30, 36) owners own s chassis.

bbs needs to do that. I see so many bbs lm copies. You can tell they are copies because from the inside of the wheel you can tell they are one piece.

Thats cool that they are doing that. I wish Nismo woul do that with all the shit that says Nismo that is on ebay and obviously a copy. like the seats and wheels.

So why did customs seize these? I couldn't see anything about it in the article.

There was only like 1 guy in that whole thread who understood the article.


These aren't replicas....replicas aren't illegal because you can't copyright a wheel design.


These were copies being sold/advertised as REAL Schnitzers....which obviously is a copyright infringement. Thus, they were seized and someone decided to hand them to Schnitzer and allow them to make a PR statement. I'm sure the German government cooperated because it was a German firm that had been infringed upon by an Asian (presumably Chinese) firm.

But no, just because Rota makes a wheel that kinda sorta looks like a TE37, Ray's cannot have all the Rota Grids seized and crushed.

Sidenote. If this happened to the 240 community, there wouldn't be anyone here with any wheels.

because they're fucking morons. the mazda community is filled with tools who use sportmax and rota products

bunch of broke bastards....

09-22-2009, 04:48 PM
Why are we talking about rota and sportmax?

Though they look a lot like wheel made by other companies, they still aren't being sold as that.

AC schnitzer was crushing wheels from companies that were claiming their knockoffs were real ac schnitzer wheels. And charging consumers full price for fakes.

That's illegal. Now if the company called themselves DF snoutzer or something and sold wheels, AC couldn't really do anything.

I guess you guys haven't checked the Vendors section for a few weeks now.

Said individual has no Threads there, and is not a vendor. :dead:

Gee, I wonder how that happened?
