i think this is why i havnt gotten wheel yet.
i can see why people buy replicas but,, it never looks as good because they are not real thats the deal with wheels... fake wheels just look so .."out of place"

i think weall should have a thread call spot the fake. just for shiiittss and giggles.... but i can notice rays knockoffs. esp rays knockoffs.. i think Te's are the most common knockoffs made.

Well i just sold these wheels 2 days ago and i told the buyer of these wheels their replica's and he really wanted to buy it of me. so he gave me a price and i said ok take it! he offered me 1600. and i needed cash anyways because i'm moving off-island. i will be relocating to Socal for good!
I wonder if the buyer thought the wheels were really volks, lol.
