Why would you do that? Did you get scratches on your car so you wanted a quick and easy "fix"?

In fact, my reps are actually 3-5lbs lighter per wheel compared to my OEM wheels even when the reps are wider. I would never track with reps, but using it for daily driving, I am more than happy. Don't think I would be comfortable tracking with $6000 wheels either. The OEM BMW M-sport wheels that came with the car are known to crack and all 4 of them were replaced by BMW before the warranty ended and haven't used them since. On the other hand, when one of my tires were blown when it had a nail stuck in it and went over 2-3 potholes on the highway @ highway speeds, not a single dent, crack or bend was found on my reps. Only had a gigantic nail spinning around in the dish of my wheels afterwards and scratched the clearcoat like crazy.
And I am pretty sure I don't need performance on the streets unless I was planning to street race which is pretty much impossible living in Vancouver.
Had TE37 and CE28 replicas on my previous car, curbed one of the set going 80km/h and no cracks/bends. Pretty sure these rep's are no longer as shitty as they used to be.

IMO, reps are fine as long as you don't claim or try to pass them off as the real thing.

The less money I spend on my car, the happier I am.
My OEM wheels were the 225M's, same ones you find on the 335is. Sold them a week after I bought the car for an amount that can purchase 3 sets of my reps.

his sig says he owns a A4, M5 & AMV, plus he use to have a porsche too so my guess is he has money
i think he never had to worry about saving money for other mods
