buy what you wwant, ive been buying higher end wheels so called and letting my gf drive my car and oops there goes a few marks or curb rashes, but yet i still keep getting them for some reason.

id say buy them if ur not gona take care of them or plan on just lettin them go for cheap when u change rims.

i dont have the patience to sell rims for a decent price and always end up takign big hits on anything i sell, i cant even sell my volks for 800 bucks and i bought them for 2400

I meant that they're the same in looks, not in construction. As much as people hate on wheel reps you can't argue that these look pretty damn good. After buying my SSR's and then powder coating them I ended up spending close to $1700 after everything was said and done. You can find these volk reps for like $750 for a whole set of 19"s, ridiculous.

*slaps self* and repeat "i love my wheels" over and over haha

anyways what everyone else has been saying..if you like it get it, just don't put volk stickers on them. i'll admit they'll look ridiculously good on your ride.

just dont put a VOLK sticker on them. I understant 3-4k for wheels is not necesarily easy to do. so spending 1G on these and have all the leftover for coilovers, ssway bar, and lots of details.

I agree with you, and plus they don't look bad at all, you can do more than just Coil and Sway with the $$$ left...

depends on your budget, do you make a lot of money? if so i guess you can buy the real deal, but if you dont earn a lot then get them, i heard a lot of good things about varrstoen. Like others have said just dont put volks stickers on them.
+1 on the leftover cash on coilovers and etc

get if you want man, your fixing your car up for yourself not anyone else. If you like em get em, If you want to save and use the extra 2-2.5K to use on other modes that's your right and prerogative...

I would save for the legit ones, but that's just me. It is really up to you to make that decision.
