IMHO I'm on oem forged coupe 19s. I know the look gets sorta old but it's pretty hard to go to something else that's just as light w/o spending a ton of money.

I'd guess these reps are at least 5lbs more per wheel than the oems

I dunno I'd rather spend $2000 on wheels then spend another $250 every time one cracks or better yet, writes off my car due to their **** quality.

Although I do like the aggressiveness of the second set, I guess I'm just old and would probably prefer the 1st "classier" set. My $.02

I have the 17 factory's on but want to upgrade to the factory 19's. Doesn't look any better than those in my opinion.

What issues are you talking about? Breaking and falling a part?

Because they are made from.... steel.

^what im trying to get at here is that i cannot see how those would be any better than these replicas. the hubcap steelies are crap too.. but yet they take a beating, and FYI the bbs reps are made by a good decent american company. now the euroteks im not sure cuz i havent researched the maker,

Of the two I would choose the last one.

Hub caps fall off on the daily. The steelies underneath are the most durable wheels ever made. They're on Nascars for a reason, you can literally hit a curb at 30Mph and not even bend em.

Who makes the BBS reps?

AE are made in the states but I wouldn't consider them high quality or problem free. I use to sell their products.

I'd pick your 2nd choice out of those two.
