I can't comment on these specific wheels since I am unfamiliar with them. However, I can comment on replicas from no-name manufacturers. I come from the golf industry's research and development of high tech golf clubs (specifically drivers) that you now see on the market. We worked and tested many different types of metals, elements, etc. (prior to manufacturing) to figure out failure thresholds. Big name companies invest a lot of money to do this. Unfortunately "replica" manufacturers do not follow such process. They don't particularly care much about quality just as long as it looks identical to what they are copying and selling it cheap.

Based on my experience and knowledge, even using the same materials and design doesn't make it equal quality. Equipment failure on replicas are so much higher compared to properly developed and manufactured products. All it takes are small bubbles in the manufacturing of wheels for them to be considered unsafe. Are these replica companies concerned with such? Replicas are a viable option if safety is not a factor. Lives may be at risk by buying these replicas. You don't want them falling apart at 60mph on the highway.

 

Well said. I know there is a lot of reputable companies and 90% of trucks have the aftermarket rims. You would think I could find some new factory takeoffs!

 

Ha. I'm trying to go up in size while the MPG will definitely go down.
