Those Varrstoen ES1 looks like cheap replica of Work VS-XX and Weds Maverick 709M. I like the design, but not sure about durability.
JDM wheels are much better quality, but they are expensive as hell. Most starts at $700 per wheel.
The Work VS-XX are true 3-pc design. My 709M are 2-pc.

I wouldn't recommend getting the Varrstoen. There's a lot going on for a 1-piece wheel and it just doesn't look stable enough to support the weight of the car. If you want good quality wheels at a cheaper price, I suggest looking into Vossen or Avant Garde. Both are US based, Vossen in Miami and AG in Cali. I can't really give a review for AG, but the Vossens look and feel like quality.

If the streets are fairly good where you live, I wouldn't worry about running replica wheels. They are very affordable, even if you bent one replacing them is not a big deal. I'm super paranoid with my Weds wheel. They ain't cheap to replace and ordering one from Japan takes forever! You can get two sets of replica wheels for price of one set of JDM.

Yeah i work in a ****ty part of town and the roads are horrendous and on weekends i like to go to dallas which doesnt really have much better roads unfortunately. Thats why i was looking at running reps. i was favoring the varrstoen just because the work vs-xx/ bbs lm has been my favorite wheel for awhile lol

Yeah I hear you I love JDM and BBS wheels too. I don't drive my GS daily but if I did I would run replicas too. These wheels are too damn expensive to drive daily.
