How are they compared to the authentic ones. I figure if the quality and looks are exactly identical, why spend the extra $$$ for the authentic ones when the replicas is just as good. I saw a really good deal on ebay for brand new chrome replicas 18x9 & 18x10 for like $899. To me, that's a real good deal. I also priced the authentic Saleens ones for like $1,500 plus. I'm just a poor boy from Cali and can't afford the real ones.

Can you post pictures of Saleen replicas?

Thanks!

They does hehe except they dont say Saleen in little letters on the rim (which I couldnt give a crap about anyway). Oh... and buying from any old crap hole in the world youll get better customer service than buying from saleen! A bunch of people had trouble with chrome Saleen rims and they were *******s as usual.

i ended up buying the real ones, due to the replicas not being available yet or when they were just selling the 18x9's i forget which. if i were buying again now i would buy the replicas no point in spending more money when you can get a better product for less thats the same other than saying "Saleen" on it
