there is nothing wrong with rocking rota's. i can see the distinction between using them on a Subie WRX (not so much with the STi) and a S2000. completely different class of cars.
when i found out that the BBS wheels i wanted were 3 g's, i said fuck it and bought some used 5zigen for 1/4 of that plus the wheels were lighter than the work emotions i wanted. i rather spend the $$$ on tires when i'm on the track.
call me cheap, call me whatever you want, i just can't justify spending that much on wheels.
