I'm sure you know all of those "posters" with slogans such as "Rota: Because real wheels are expensive," so I will refrain from posting that here. Rotas arent even that much less expensive than wheels made by reputable companies. A set of (4) 18x8 Torques was only about $150 less than the 5Zigens I ended up getting. It'll be the same in the OPs case.. the Torques you linked are only marginally less expensive than the Tenzo's he linked.. but the quality isnt really comparable.
I said it once, and I'll say it again.. dont skimp on wheels. Do it right the first time and it'll be cheaper (and you'll be happier) in the end.

Without knowledge of the incident and history regarding a damaged wheel... it is pointless to bash a particular company unless that was your wheel that it happened to. I know professional track racers who use Rotas. Anyone could easily find some pictures of damaged Volks, Advans, 5Zigens, Tenzo's... Rotas are fine.
