I'd like to see a bigger pic, tho, b4 finally deciding.
But yeah, go for it. They're nice and a whole lot cheaper than OEM's.

Probably a whole lot heavier and more likely to get bent too though.

LOL, no doubt. It's the price of lighter alloys. Nissan discribes my wheels as "superlight".....who knows how much lighter???? but are much more $$$$.

For the negligable diff in performance, the 'knock offs' would seem to be the better deal by far.

I would just buy the oem rims off of someones car. Replicas are always alot heavier. Whatever you end up doing post some pics.

They are probably the better deal, but the OP was asking if they should be trusted. . I certainly would not. I'd rather use whatever i'm using already or pick up a set of used OEMs in that case.
