Default Action Crash Replica Wheels

I'm looking for some new wheels for my S since mine are scratched and curb rashed to death. I was thinking of these action crash replica wheels. Has anyone bought them and are they decent quality? There also seems to be this platinum plus wheel, but not sure what it means?

They will be fine, just weigh a little more than the stock wheels. I am running 2 replicas on the rear of my S and never had any issues with either. at the $116 price you can't go wrong, I paid almost $150 for each of my rears 2 years ago.

You can pick up a set of real ones for around 500 or so if you look hard. Id get the real deal in that case.

Why spend $500 or more for a set of used and scratched wheels when he can get these brand new replicas for $116 a piece. When he puts them on, no one will be able to tell a difference.

WOW! That is a great price if they are indeed machine finished. I just bought these:

$644.00 for a set of four and got free shipping. The wheels are made by X-ray and they look fantastic! The machine finish really adds to the look IMO! Go for it.

I think being Replicas and naming them "Action Crash" wasn't the greatest idea.

This brings me back to my other posts... why pay an arm & leg for OEM when you can get brand new ones. People on here want like 700 to 900..Garbage!

Look good to me. I bet they don't come with center caps though. I'll have to keep these in mind though when I'm looking for winter wheels. ap2v1 have always been my favorite oem rim for the s2k.

I say go for it, if I had money I would buy them. I just DD my car and I dont really race or track my car, so I wouldnt worry much. Looks like hell of a deal. Also you can just use the center caps off your stock wheels, and if I remember right, you can even use oem ap1 center caps on these.
