replicas

the real ones are a few shades darker... 'chrome shadow' or whatever they like to call it..

the replicas are usually 8" front and back, the real ones are 9" at the back i think.. much meaner look, but with the amount of times i have to enter multi level city carparks and have those nasty little curbs grind away at my rims, i'll keep my replicas!

Thanks Randell, they are 18x8's front and rear. How much are the replicas worth?
