Had the same dilemma as u. Almost bought advanti/lenso for supposedly better durability. But cant find the design that I like because Proton's bolt pattern is normally 4x114.3, not many rims have this bolt pattern (8 holes for 15"). So I ended up with a replica.

So far half a year no problem, brushed a kerb once and result is similar to stock rim. Furthermore I see/know many ppl using reps too.

The downside is sometimes will feel worried when go thru uneven road, also don't dare to corner hard too often.

That is what I have been worried with.
Whats your opinion regarding these rims? Is it durable enough? I like most advanti design.

For persona 2016? I think same bolt pattern as iriz so most of them wont fit

That is my main concern, the safety when using replica rims. I would consider myself a careful driver. Most of the time I would be driving around Penang Island aka city drive. Only sometimes going back hometown which need to go thru Grik road. So those advertisements in mudah which say 15 inch rims in between RM1k +- means its original taiwan/thailand right?

Yeah i also constantly monitor for cracks, which is a bit of a hassle.

1k is normally the price for ori. Find a reputable shop to be safe. Note that the listed price normally havent include centrecone, valve and nuts. It can be another rm200 or so depending on quality.
