    Ive never had a problem, beside the obvious weight diff (stuff all to be honest in most Ive had, lol) they have served me well

    I guess its the daily driver side of me that would rather them in case of damage and the cheapness to replace if need be (less than 150 a wheel)

    but now Im going back to oem for the balance factor, as one of the rims was a bit out at the time and took an extra 15min to sort out, other than that good wheels

    try tempetyres, they send out the wheels via tnt to your home, great service

    weight difference.

    desmond regamaster 15x7 (4.1 or 4.2kg) (4stud or 5 stud?)
    rota slipstream 15x7 (5.4kg)

    if interested in weight saving.

    Replica wheels make me sad.

    I am sure that they are adequate quality and strength for driving on the street, but doesn't the theft of original designs bother any of you at all?

    I agree also, if anyone remembers there was a article about how right now we might not care to buy replica's of particular products, but eventually manufacturers wont be making the same money, they wont want to continue making better products and there will be less innovation.

    My opinion on the matter is to save up enough so that you can buy genuine rims or dont buy them at all.

    Replica wheels tend to be one piece or just made of a material.


    Genuine is usually 2 piece and/or forged.
    Super light, super strong.


    I think genuine bend n crack instead of shatter.

    Quality is a difference.
    But for street use. Replica is satisfactory.
    Youre not going to take a corner at 150km/h. And potholes are no rim friendly.
    Rather smash a 200 dollar rim than a 600 dollar rim.
