OP, no... Just no.
Your "knock-off CV3's" have no concavity to them. Nor do they have a deep inner lip.
Your "knock-off CV1's" look like a split 5 spoke. NOT like the CV1's.
However, as long as you like the look, that is what matters. Congrats on your cheap wheels. I love cheap wheels. And that's why I typically sport Stance wheels on my cars.

It never ceases to amaze me when people talk real vs fake or replica etc. There are no companies that will stake their business on producing an unsafe wheel. Str-racing.com Look at my styles and you will see a number of wheels you recognize. Call them knockoffs, replicas, fakes, whatever. I sponsor 3 Formula Drift cars that run wheels I pulled right from my inventory and have never had an issue. The quality of wheels has come so far in the last 2 years that there's no reason to build cheap. I love when people spend 2-3X's what they have to for a center cap.
Sorry, got on the soapbox a little. To the op, that's the beauty of YOUR CAR AND YOUR TASTE...IT'S YOURS! Nice setup.

I think they look better than the CV1's. And no, Im not slamming . I like 18's , they are a good size wheel and not as expensive as 19-20's. 225/40/18 and 255/40/18 is what Im going to be running bc Im using the tires off my staggered setup.
These are the CV3's (knockoff) I have on my car right now.
Also below is a comparison between the two "CV1's"

but 18x8 for those "cv1's" is such a weak offset, their gonna sink in the back

I feel the same way. I would rather pay $500 versus $2500 for wheels that are similar in style. It just makes more sense. Unless your the type of person that has to have name brand everything and then you can justify spending that kinda money.... And your right, "Your car, Your taste" Forum's are meant for opinions and information and not that we have to accept them but they are helpful at times. Thanks strracing. Gonna have a buddy of mine do a photoshoot soon.

Those don't look bad, maybe if the rear was more concave it would look more aggressive. They are not my style but it's nice to see something different besides #TeamVossen on 90% of the cars on here. And I hope people don't think Vossen was the first to come out with simple concave design wheels lol. At the end of the day Vossens are a heavy CAST wheel that's overpriced.
