I run their rims. No problems. Still look good a year later and a few off-road trips under my belt.

I purchased my first RR product last week; an overhead console. I took it out of the box and here is what I saw. I had a good laugh. I guess it was O-Beer-Thirty in Taiwan at the time and the worker couldn't wait to get out of work.

In case you are wondering what is wrong, the sticker is upside down. It is no big deal, just thought it was funny.

My overall impression is it is very cheap, but not really inexpensive for what it is. I think I paid $106, but it would be a much better value at $50. However given its intended purpose, I think it will work okay. I am going to brace it with a piece of steel and some rivets to make sure it won't flex once I start putting items in it. It is an excellent idea and turns wasted space into useful space.
