The Lexus IS-F 2008 OEM wheels they are selling is Replica, right? Starting from $299 per rim sounds too cheap.

Anybody actually buy rims from that site or similar sites like getallparts.com? Been looking at both websites and the prices for OEM rims are pretty good. Almost TOO good...

My speculation is that these are knock-offs (reproductions), not OEM wheels. With that said they're all cast, most likely no where near the quality of OEM, and most likely VERY heavy. An OEM wheel will weight somewhere around 25-28 pounds, a good flow form cast 18-25 pds, and forged less than 25 pds. For those who understand unsprung weight (not sure I completely understand), these wheels mean "show", not "go" as far as performance.

Found this thread. http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...ish+line+wheel
Seems like the wheels are OEMs, refurbished and/or damaged take offs. Their return policy is hopeless. Warranty void if you put the wheel on a balancing machine. x
