Brock wheels?

[schtozo]

Hey check these out! I has no moneyz to spare for now. It wasnt clear if they are replicas but i guess yes.

Ebay item number 290516606581

Are they worth it?

Haven't seen Brock wheels in a while. I had a set of these in 16x9 on my Jetta for a little while and really liked them. I didn't see any info on who is making these though...but those are real deal B1s on the car pictured, not replicas.

Price isn't bad but I'm concerned with who is making them and where.

Edit: I paid about $1600 from Tunershop for these back in '01 so if they are decent quality it's not a bad deal.

Those look alright, but real Brocks have sick concave centers, those ones don't. I would get something better for that kind of money. Lip looks a little cheap on those too

They are definatly reps. The first flag in that department is the "Style" in the description. The pictures only further prove that fact. They look like decent wheels stylisticly though.
However I would pass. First off, the item location is in Turkey. Nothing against the Turks, but I'd rather spend that kind of coin on something a little more likely to have a cert and safety rating.
Secondly, the standard shipping price listed is $450.00. For the cost of the item and shipping ($1300.00) you cold get some nice genuine wheels with tires for the same cash at tirerack. Or check out Tunershop.com, you can get a set of Azev A's (similar to the aforementioned wheels, and probably my next set) for $1400 shipped.

If you want a set of 16x9s close to that price range, there are a ton of other options. Ary's got a couple of options at ESM wheels, there are a handful for sale on VWVortex (some with tires) and ebay.de is always a great place to look.

I've found some incredible deals on ebay Germany. If you are looking to get something different there are a ton of options on there from JE design, Brock, Powertech, etc. Use google translator to read the ads and you will often find that people are willing to ship to the states for a decent price.
