I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

real or fake???

I'm hoping the top one's are Rotas due to the fact that the car they're on has drum rears. I would hope someone who could afford Volks would be wise enough to upgrade brakes. :wink:

EASY way to tell on the te-37's is......*drum roll*

The rota lug holes line up with the spokes. The REAL volk lug holes are offset from the spokes a tad. The top's are rotas in that pic and they suck for trying to fake the funk.

ass...lol im still rolling on drums even with my TE37s you basterd! it is on the "to do" list though....

the top ones are Rotas painted like the Volks with Ray's lugs... the way you can tell is from the hole placement on the rim... the Rotas bolts are centered on one set of spokes and Volks are off center of the spokes ....... DAMNIT SEAN YOU STOLE MY THUNDER!!!!!
