Go for it . Knock off rims with a cheap set of china rubber .

STAYLURKN

close to XXR 962, check it out

Almost every rim is knockoff nowadays and the difference is only what you think it is.
XXR is all knockoff, Rota, Axis, Etc...
Some of these rims aren't cheap they just aren't as much. There are plenty of knockoff nikes and mcdonalds and some are actually better, in some peoples opinions.

So while you might have a cocky point, at the same time we all love to save money. That's why you go to Mcdonalds.


So let me restate the word "knockoff" and say "alternative". Now let's be happy.

Thanks STAYLURKN btw..

I like the step lip....the 962 is close but doesn't have the step.

STAYLURKN

Youre welcome! To me it doesnt matter if its knock off or not. Im trying to please my self, not other people. By the end of the day the car still looks good, you save tons of ca$h, your having fun and your having fun. :D I just sold my work meister s1 2piece, ordered xxr 521 (Gold) 16x8 +20 and air ride soon. :D

BTW: i'd rather make my own burger. You can call it a mcdonalds knock off but fuuuuuuhhhhh!! its so damn good

STAYLURKN

Lol me too. At first i ordered xxr 002 because of the lip... But then dont wanna deal with rubbing issues esp. Im going air soon and will dump tge car. So i went with a +20 and 16" :D just not a big fan of bigger wheels lol

521's still have a generous 2.75 step lip. :D

Awesome!

STAYLURKN

i know! :D

It was sarcastic... I don't support parts like this, it takes away from the engineering time and money invested by the REAL manufacturers/designers. I'm a small business owner so that affects my views on subjects like this plus I'm a firm believer in you get what you pay for.

STAYLURKN

good for you :D

Ricersux

Not a hater...trying to be an educator.

STAYLURKN

thank you, do you have a website? i might need some parts. (not being sarcastic)

Ricersux

No no...thank you . I wish I had a shop..my business is auto glass not cool go fast parts sorry.

STAYLURKN

lol not looking to go fast. im a cruiser :D my set up is only for cruising/sexyness lol

TonyGR

I would do 521 allday but the +35 offset will make it poke. I'd do it if I was on air, but on springs it looks funky. Has to be slammed imo

STAYLURKN

521's 16x8 is +20 and yes thats why i am going this route because i am getting my air soon

if you are gonna get these set just slammmm it with ksports.

I think a lot of people get butt hurt about knock offs/replicas because THEY spent a ton of cash on their wheels. Then someone else spends a fraction of a cost on their wheels and their car looks just as nice!

I could care less about getting "respect" because I wasted a ton of money on a wheel so I can brag on the internet about my "works." Now if I absolutely HAD to have a wheel and the only way to get it was to pay the big $, then I would. But I guess my taste is satisfied with 90% of the "knockoff" wheels out there! I'm probably going with 521's too. Not available yet.

STAYLURKN

i dont really care if its a knock off or not. its just a matter of doing it right,

you can order now before they sell out, they are gonna have it by may. i ordered mine march 27th. :D what size are you going for?
