I want to get some 17x9 chrome Cobra R's for my car. I don't want to spend the cash for the real FRPP ones, so which ones out there look most like the actual Cobra R's?

I know a few companies sell ones that look very different and I want to avoid that. Thanks in advance guys.

I have the polished ones. I'm sure the chromed are nice also.

I noticed that they have the shipping weight as 26lbs. Mine had a shipping weight of 21lbs. I wondder if they've done something to make them heavier.

AFS wheels are nice but the Cobra R's look alot different than the real ones.

If I were you I would just save up for the real ones. The replicas chrome is very well known for coming off. You don't want to kick your self in the behind when you buy them cheap and then regret it. I have the real ones the c58's from summit for 1,050 but I have had them for two years and still look as good as new.
