Cant really bash them. It is what it is. As long as the owner just is up and up with/about it, no problems really. At least not in my opinion.

If the quality is good enough for the street and light track usage, then all the more power to these owners.

For replicas, they do look pretty good though.

Now just don't go sticking on "Volk" stickers on these and all.

To the OP....cool set. For the cost....I would agree with you. Cant really go wrong, plus you said it as it was...replicas from the get go. I can respect that.

I wish people were more open to your opinions.

When you buy Volk, you buy the quality and strength that comes from the forged monoblock design. Unfortunately not everyone can afford paying $3500+ for a set of wheels, and that's why these are a great alternative. You're basically paying for the look of the design.

Wheels are like girls handbags. Granted depending on the usage you cant use a "cheap" wheel on the track then complain that they are "crap" because they broke. But for the most of us...they are like handbags. Its all about the look and the brand names. So I think that as long as the wheel performs as good as OEM or even slightly better...then all is good. The design, offsets, tire sizes, tire appearance (stretched or fat), etc...are all up to the tastes of the owner. They see their car everyday.

If vendors can keep the costs fair to the general public, then that would make everyone happy too.

I do actually have TE-37's, but I dont have kids to worry about. So I can respect the OP's choice in getting these and taking care of more important priorities with the cash saved. Food always ranks up there for me.

Clean looking wheels for the price. Great alternative.

+1 for this.

Seriously. Can't quote this enough. I'm actually really surprised more hate hasn't ended up in this thread, haha.

Also these look outstanding. I'd buy a set if I wasn't so in love with the stock rims.
