not if you polish them when they're new and unmounted, and then wax them, all you gotta do after that is spray the brake dust off, something you have to do with any other wheel. Check out teamdynamics stock at rimstock.com and teamdynamicsracing.com, they have a host of wheels that you can order in gold, and I could be wrong, but I think they have some in gunmetal as well.

i'm not sure if ADR, Motegi, and Tenzo are made stronger than rotas. for 125/wheel i'm not expecting an indestructible rim.

Three seasons, awful roads, hard driving, and still straight as the day mine were made. I've heard/seen pics of some breaking but all were during auto-xing. Supposedly there was a bad batch and they corrected that, plenty of people use them now reguraly with no problems at all.

I'm partial but the only two knock offs I would buy are Rota and RH.
