they will look good for a month, but after a month, once the lips start corroding and collecting a residue that won't even come off unless you use steel wool, paint starts chipping, bends come about front 1" potholes, because these aren't even forged wheels, then you will regret it. if you want to waste $1000 buying a fake set of rims/tires, go for it.

chances are they won't even be properly fitting..

what sizes / offsets do you plan on getting?

please do some more research before jumping the gun and purchasing wheels like this, even if they are "on sale"..

you will regret it..

honestly i don't think they even look good. they look fake. and fake looks terrible.

how can you tell me that wearing something fake looks good? its like wearing a fake rolex, it just gives the impression to people that you are trying to hard to make a good image, and this looks really bad..

either save up for a nice real set, or buy some nice stock wheels, GS or IS..

In all honesty the second ones to me look the best, even though they are knock offs. The only reason why I got knock offs was that I buckled one of my other rims (genuine JDM Enkei G-Zero's) and I couldn't find any OEM Supra 17's (no joke!).

If you do buy the wheels at least take off the centre cap

You will care who made them once they get bent after a week of driving and you realize it costs more to repair than what all 4 wheels were worth.

If you look at them in person, you can totally tell the difference and trust me, they look CHEAP.

No, they won't. They will look horrible as soon as you put them on the car.
