A Wheel company that copied a members company.

Dildo's Racks on Racks?

 

Just testing the waters for a potential business name.

Why you gotta make it awkward..

 

Excuse the shitty photshop of taking the caps "out", I'm at work and only have paint to use. But besides the "beadlock" and the icon one where they have icon written, what's the fuckin difference? Each wheel is at a different angle but it's all the same design. Everyone ripped off everyone. Why is there a need to destroy one company in particular when every company makes the same design?

 

meh, they are different enough for grown adults to be able to decide how to spend their money

 

It is ridiculous that this happens but unfortunately it does. Very rarely does anybody have a completely "original" ideal. But some people dont put in any effort and simply piggyback on other peoples creativity. Unfortunately it is hard to combat it legally. Utility patents are more successful with enforcement but design patents are difficult to enforce. With something like wheels, or roof racks in my case where the design and looks are the only "new" idea, then you are usually SOL when it comes to protecting what you created.

I have had people directly copy or slightly modify my roof rack designs as well and it sucks. I think for the most part consumers try to be ethical and support those that really put in the work to make the design and the members here who have the information should be the proponents of that mind set.

 

Pretty much. I only stated about the latest 2 designs. Their first 2 I have nothing to say. Every wheel is similar to another. They're all round. (mostly)

 

uh, love your truck bro. pretty sure i have a picture of it somewhere on my phone

 

saved for later.

 

My boss does not like this thread

Haven't done shit for the past hour

 

Because it is Tacoma World?

 

thanks, now if I could stop breaking stuff it'd be great.

 

I think the only difference here is that VTX will have them in stock

 

What's VTX stand for? Vaginas Took e Xtraordinary design..

 

The fact that SCS has a waiting list should speak volumes, and not volumes about why that means someone should buy a similar wheel elsewhere.

 

wheres the fun in that?

 

To play devils advocate on this, SCS has there wheels made in China like many other companies do. The Chinese government could give to shits about a US copyright. Maybe vtx didn't realize they were picking a rip off from the manufacturers catalog. This is a Vw rim from 17 years ago. Pretty similar to a stealth 6.

 

Nope spoke to Vin about that, all current SCS wheels will be exclusive to Toyotas, they will not be released for Jeeps.

Jeeps will have their own designs.

 

Bingo Brian. Same factory in China.
