Default AP2V1 Replicas on ebay from wheelsandcaps

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/17-Alloy-Wh...sQ5fAccessories

hmm...

i know the replica lexus wheels on ebay are nice quality, anyone have experience with these?

$520 shipped is a pretty good price compared to what everyone on here wants for them...

I am looking at buying these as well. Anyone have any info on them? Do they weigh the same as OEM wheels? Are they made from the same material?

Why would you want to buy a REPLICA OEM wheel?
Just get aftermarket wheels.. or buy the real deal OEM...

Why not? It's inexpensive, the style looks good... so, what's the problem?

I dunno, it doesn't make sense to buy oem replicas to me.

If you were gonna spend $ for wheels, why not spend a little more and get legit stuff, you know?

oem wheels look good.. for oem..
alot better looking wheels out there.

"Legit"... I mean, we aren't buying luxury watches.

Sure there are a lot better looking wheels, but they also cost more. For some, if they jsut want some beater wheels, I don't see what the issue is.

Personally, I am thinking about it. I use to run SSR Comp-C... but these would make great beater wheels.

Doesn't a set of good condition oem AP2 v1's go for about what these knock offs are selling for???
I'd sell mine for $500 and I think they have to be better than the replicas.

That's the same price as a real set, I'd rather have the peace of mind. None of that, "can't tell the difference" stuff.
