Because it's what their customers want, and the sole purpose of a business is to make money. These two go hand-in-hand.

I have no problems with reps as long as people don't pass it off as the real thing. I daily drive with my Prodrive wheels (made by rays engineering) and i bent 2 of them in less than 4 months. Wheels are gonna get bent/curbed. Front lips are gonna crack too if your stance is proper. I can see people not dropping 4k on BBS wheels that will most likely get damaged. Especially if your on a budget and not a balling.

And trust me, I would lose no sleep buy replica Volks next time around. Rays Engineering doesn't pay my bills.
