hmmm. . I dunno... but I do think that the fan base that has developed for these knock-offs should be called RotaRooters.

Just checked out PP Euromeister Alloy Replica Wheels. They never mention Fuchs once in their ad or description. So be careful what you call them.

I think just plain Rotas might work, just like Lindseys. Lindsey makes other kinds of wheels, right? Here in this environment, when someone says Lindseys, we all know what they're talking about. I think the same will apply to these.

So how about just plain "Rotas"?

As for the name, I like Rota. I don't need any more people saying Fuch Moses.
For some reason the idea of combining the names like they were for celebs keeps sticking in my brain... (like Tomkat and Bennifer...)

How about combining Moses and Rota to get the Mota Fuchs?
(Mota Phuchs, Mota Fooks, Motas, ... Oh, I also like "Wheels"!!!)

To be grammatically correct, it should be Mo's Fauxs

How about Rota Fox? After all, isn't that what Fuchs means (roughly)? Makes sense to me...
