Wait...are they volk or rota? Rota is the knockoff but I'm sure you're being sarcastic. I'm rocking Rota knockoffs too. Volk Ce28 knockoffs.

Just by looking at them, those appear to be the Volks. Heavy sarcasm is evident in the thread title.

Oh, and as usual with your car Mikey... hot damn. Super clean.

I love the drop you have there. What setup are you running for your suspension? How does it ride?

I have a kyb gr2/whiteline ground control springs/group N top hats that I love the ride qualily and handling of, except it makes my wagon look like it's sagging in the rear. Thats the only thing really making me not want to swap the suspension bits over.

And where can I get one of those lips? Is that a TW bumper specific part?

Figured you were running a coilover setup of some sort. Thanks for the info. One more thing on the list to check out.

And only 60 ish dollars for that lip? Nice. I think I might be picking one of those up after I sort out my suspension.

Funny stuff, I was going to say "durr, you mean immitation RE30s?" They look AWESOME!

Another story, my friend had the imitation of the imitation(yeah..) of the RE30 on his RSTi a few years back, went on our local forums telling people they were Volk RE30s and had to quash his moment of fame.
