    Knockoffs are cheaper for more then the reason of the name. They are lower quality, different material....

    You do not have to spend 2-3k on rims to get nice, quality rims.

      Exactly, I'm not talking about rims that are similar styles, I'm talking about ebay knockoffs and stuff like that, they're poor quality and not worth your time.

        stating facts which you are not sure of about is not stating an opinion. That would be talking about something you don't know about... I still wanna know where you guys see all these knock off wheels failing???
        Yeah, if you are road racing, doing 100+ often, then you probably don't want cheap wheels. But I still have yet to hear from any of you guys the downside to "Fake" wheels other than the fact that they are gonna break(which you don't know)

          Some are heavy(sportmax) poor quality, poor coatings(the paint or what ever), some do not even have the whole drilled right for the lug nuts(pretty rare have seen a couple) They break.

          Yo do not have to be racing at 100+ for them to break.

            sweet you found some people on the internet who broke wheels, I bet you can find pics of ssr's broke in half too! those pics are clearly from abuse.... if you did that to even a forged wheel, they would be damaged.

              i guess in my opinion i would rather buy the real deal and spend the extra money not cause its baller but cause it would give me the satisfaction of the name, they get there reps for a reason. Like buying a condom would you rather have a trojan or a condom brand condom, put that no name condom on and see if you feel safe.

                          ?I offered to buy your 20 year old wheels for what you paid. Mainly because I needed wheels and didn't really want that style wheel, but need some wheels. LOL@ you thinking I'm a cheap ass. Not to get into the bragging thing but the TV hanging on my wall says different.

                                    you call me a cheap ass, which I am not. Your wheels are only worth what someone will pay for them, thats why kyle sold them to you for what he did. Your telling me those wheels are worth over 2000 dollars? LAWL! I guess instead of defending myself, I should have just called you a jew. Lying to sell part which I gave you for free, wanting WAY more for wheels than what they are worth. I guess I should just start expecting stuff like this from you.
                                    I still don't understand how you call me a cheap ass.Once again, not braggin here just trying to break down how I am a cheap ass... My car is worth more than all of your half put together cars and shitty parts laying around,I have a lot more stuff than you, and yet you still call me a cheap ass... The pot calling the kettle black a bit?

                                      Still haven't seen any proof that cheap wheels all break, which is what this arguement was about in the first place. Since you can't prove anything, you may as well start takig shots at someone who isn't on the FS bandwagon...
