If it's from the company I think it is, they specialize in just making direct OEM replacement wheels.

Wheels and Caps is the one I've always seen/heard of people using - I'm guessing that's where these were sourced from.

Are these replicas, or refurbished OEM wheels?

Id stay away from powdercoating as mentioned above, but in their current state I think that they ae just fine. To say they are not strong and will break is crazy.

Lol oh my here comes the epic battle wether or not powder coating really damages the compound... Its not going to make your wheel crack when you hit a pot hole, even if you powder coat it... And if your worried... just Plasti-Dip the sucker!!

But Jim, you think you can get us the weight?

(By the way, the rivets get there ok?)

Hope these are just temps!

the oems r weak i can just imagine how weak these r. i would not pc them if i were u.

non the less good deal
What? I'm guessing you typed this on a phone?

How are the OEM wheels weak - I have never heard this problem before.

Let me guess, you're one of the anti-Rota people too?
it is pretty well know on here that the ap2 v1's r weak. no to the point where they will crack if u hit a pot hole or from regular use but they r on the weaker side. I have seen these crack on a boosted ap1 b4. and a couple threads on here where people were using them as track wheels (they were powder coated).

Im not saying these wheels r bad but i wouldn't use them for anything but street duty.

and im not an anti rota person. im actually rollin on a set of staggered 16" slips and love them
