For almost all replica rim you don’t know who is the factory, and without knowing the factory you wouldn’t know the quality. And the factory won’t care about quality too since you can’t trace it back to them if the rims fail, and you don’t know whether the rims were tested properly.

A manufacturer like Enkei, you know for sure it is tested for QC, because the factory is known and they can and will be held accountable.

Are there good replica rims? Don’t know. Because don’t know if they were certified, or tested. Just because your friend use and there’s no problem, doesn’t mean it’s good. Who knows maybe tested it will fail.

Good luck with that additional 15 seconds on my wheels. Going to a proper tyre shop with tools and a welder would take 30 minutes per wheel.

Don’t buy real rims and fake shitty lock nuts
