not sure why i'm helping you since you tried being such an arse to me but whatever, i wont want to see u waste your money.
replica's are blend of metal alloy which are not forged properly and have imperfections in their design and molecular structure causing them to EASILY bend and BREAK. they also have bad design (much lower cost in R&D) which causes vibration, unevenly weighted and would cause more wear on suspension parts and rougher ride

its best you buy used oem than new replicas. bite the bullet. i did three times and never regretted it but my rims are a bit on the far side of the spectrum so you should have no problem. you can get gd used oems for 3500

cuz god will bless you & I will dance for your wedding.... :drinking:
You must not study me in the ole talk forum bai, I does just be on ole talk.

Thanks for the info anyways, I feel its best I look for a set of OEM ones for real & get them painted. But I will keep looking meanwhile.
Would have loved to get something kinda pretty though (some spokes & a nice lip....ricer bizness nah).

aba, that gloss black looks epic! If I get that in 15's eh.

I already fed up look, I might just look for some stock rims and put those on.

yea, the ones on the vic dont have the smaller spokes inside. other than that the outer sprangs are almost the same (cant see it at this angle, its what actually catched my eye i that rim).
