Site your source. Link us to some proven issues by a reputable person or university, not just some tool on a forum saying they aren't road worthy. My OZ Superleggeras bent on a pothole but you don't see me blowing up the forums saying OZ is trash..

Its funny because I went to a drift event at Lebanon Valley Speedway and most of the guys there were running XXR and cheaper brands (for obvious reasons) and I was sitting down talking to one guy and he was saying that his XXR wheels were the better of the cheaper brands and he never had one break on him. He had at least 4-5 sets with him. One guy even went into the wall wheels first and got tons of curb rash but the car was still derivable. He hit the wall so hard i thought the rim would have shattered

These were the only two pics I was able to find. I dont exactly know the offsets but so far it seems as the lips on these wheels were a bit exaggerated OR people just bought higher offsets. I have yet to see someone with a decent offset like the equips

Idk y ppl hate on rep wheels so much. Even if I could afford the real deal. Why would I want to spend that much money on wheels and tires. Especially if u drive ur car daily. Its different if u dont drive ur car everyday. Plus, most ppl that see our cars in person cant tell the difference between a name brand wheel and a replica wheel. Only car **** addicts like us can tell the difference. But to the average guy. They all look the same. I have the xxr521 wheels and I get tons of compliments on my car. Most of these ppl that compliment my car wouldnt know a single thing about wheels, let alone the brand of the wheel or even the specs. Heck, the other day some guy asked me how I got my wheels so perfect. I told him that my car has a 18x10 in the rear with a 25 offset and he looked at me and said, whats an offset?"
