I've seen some BBS replica wheels on eBay which are around half the price of proper BBS' and only just more expensive than having my standards refurbished.

Has anyone any experience of these reps? Are they rubbish quality? Do they flake and buckle or are they ok?

Well it depends on who made them, not all replica BBS wheels come from the same place. Some are ok, whilst others are awful. Replica wheels tend to weigh a lot more than genuine ones, so keep these things in mind when buying replica wheels.

Tbh weight isn't my main concern. Driving my car hard has given way to posing the older I've got so adding to the unsprung weight isn't too bad. What I am worried about is the paint corroding and wheels buckling. I suppose ordering olnline ill always be taking a bit of a gamble.
