    Whats the point if there fake then you can't brag about them.

    Its like buying a house that has no internals but looks good from the out side. WHATS THE POINT? Ricer Crap.

    Oh i should add i would understand if the real thing didn't come in E36 fitment so a rep is the only way but they do.
    I buy wheels that are hot, and can fit wider tires for more contact patch.

    buying wheels to brag? you're retarded my friend

    here's a pic of what they look like on a black e36 (though they have 9" rears and I got 10s)



    just got home from the Z convention in cleveland to find that the coilovers for my e36 are in too!! as well as my zhp shift knob!

    now i just need rsm's so i can toss my suspension in

    I actually sometimes wish my Works were knockoffs. If I trash one I'm fucked as its essentially impossible to get another one.
    You got works on your e30? What kind and pics?:D

    Yeh i see where you guys are comming from i wouldn't want to trash some lms ithor, i just don't like the fact that people go and put all this time and effort in to creating these wheels just so people can go and rip them off. But like i said its just my opinion and im not trying to stop anyone from doing what they want. I must say it would look pritty sweet.

    That's a pretty ridiculous statement. What are wheels for? Looks. Sure no one wants something that will bend, and light weight is better, but just because it's a replica, doesn't mean it's not quality. Putting real LMs on an e36 is not even bragging rights if you ask me, it's just stupid.

    Case in point, Maxxim Remembers, lots of people on this board have them, why? Because they look good, they weigh 16 lbs each, and they only cost $600. They aren't of poor quality either.

    If you have a track car, there are wheel options out there that weigh almost nothing for not much money, Team Dynamics for one, also those Maxxim wheels on the previous page that are BBS replicas, 12 lbs IIRC, and every Rota. None of us have race cars that are serious enough to need $4000 wheels.

If I have a daily driver that I drive around town (where potholes, bumps, etc. lurk) and I want the look of a BBS or other high-priced wheel, then a replica is a perfectly good candidate. Why spend a shitload on wheels that are just as easy to bend/ruin instead of paying a fraction since they're going on a DD?

    brb, I'm going to go buy a house with no internals.

    the ironic part is a lot of people on here wouldn't even pay that for wheels
    I'm one of those people:D 1k is pretty close though to what I would spend, depends on the wheels. I paid $200 for the current wheels.

    There is nothing wrong with fake wheels. In most cases they are havier and might not be of SUPERB quality. What you are buying is the looks. And most of the time its not an issue of "if you cant afford it forget it," but an issue of purpose and how much that purpose is worth to you.

    You're house analogy is lacking too. Marble, granite, stainless steel, brass, hardwood flooring, oak, maple, cherry, and many many other expensive luxuries found in homes... are copied in looks and feel in some shape or form to save on cost... and this is found even in upscale homes to some degree.

    Oh and for the record... i have a set of ACS's on my car and am rebuilding a set of RM's. But will rock a replica on my car in a heart beat if it served a purpose. In fact, if i ever ended up picking up an e36 or e46... i'll be slapping on a set of CSL reps the very next week.
