I'm not big into names so I really don't see the point in doing so. origniality is great when you are an artist. when you are an old guy with a kid, budget, and ex-wife to support, you pretty much get what looks good and is relatively cheap.

thanks for the input though.
I'd rather buy the original rather than the counterfeit. Originality comes at a price, as shown by knock offs.

Show me a replica that is stronger than the original wheel.

My Enkeis got wrecked on a pot hole after a week on my way to work.

My new ones go over the same pot hole 2 times a day 5 days a week.

Are you just mad that you bought the originals and not some 'knock off' for cheaper.

Even knock off brands have good quality ones, I'm guessing you are one of those people who if their wheels aren't the PERFORMANCE BRAND they are instantly knock offs.

Also before you try asking why I don't avoid the pot hole - don't bother.

You aren't worth any time, because you clearly have no respect for your car. Since this is a technical forum I'll get this thread back on track. Every working person has a budget and it seems that you found a wheel the fits the budget you want. Re-mounting the OE tire will work fine. Do you have TPMS? Some wheels aren't compatible with TPMS.

Lol you dodged all the questions no ones arguing just simply asking you for your input and you dodge out.
