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

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

Hope these are just temps!

Staying out of that fight...

looks can be deceiving. The clearcoat causes cancer.... j/k. I would not trust anything from China due to low standards. I buy from reputable makers of quality products

I have been running replicas on the rears for 4 years now, nothing negative to say about them. the only difference I could find was the outside ring on the front of the wheel was a little thicker than OEM. If I remember correctly, the rears weighed only a couple more pounds than factory...
