Regarding on Replicas Rim from tyre shop they no bother or trade-in.

Unless you sell for friend.. For original rim is non-Japan they can accepted for trade-in, even much heavier.

So due to 2nd hand value the "Used" Japan rim still much expansive then new replicas rim.

For long term wise : replica rim are cheap but everyone can afford it and still in the big aftermarkets.

For my experience used on Taiwan rim and not the china made.
For the quality wise so so once you hits on pothole and dent only, but won't be easily cracked.

But dunno for china made quality...
Some tyre shop told me from china replica can be easily crack on center spoked.

From my list.
Once is using the ori rim from come with purchase car.
The other is buy the Used rim or get ori from Japan or Italy made, pothole is can't avoid cause we life with pothole anywhere.

But decent markets all those looking for more lighter weight design and more good.

What can do? BBB = buy buy buy smile.gif

hi, noob here and i have few question
1) how to define fake/imitation/replica rim?
2) all made in taiwan n china considered fake/imitation?
3) Lenso made in Thai and Advanti made in Msia considered original and good enough?
4) if 3) considered original, how to differentiate whether itz original made in Thai & Msia or replica which is made in Taiwan/China?

thank you.

How to check?

The word made in : is very important to that rims, original sticker does not mean is original.

"Made in" Japan, Taiwan, italy, Thai, M'sia all = original.

Label : Taiwan, Japan or empty = Fake.
Fake also got from china & Taiwan.

Just buy got come with original box package and user manual with sticker one = 100% real original rims.
