Default Replica Wheels on Ebay??

What do you guys think about the replica wheels on Ebay? Does anyone have experience with them?
This seller seems to have a lot, but I'd hate to be disappointed

eBay Store – O E Wheels: Search results for mustang.

Thanks, I'd really appreciate that!

Generally speaking, does anyone see anything wrong with using replica wheels?

AmericanMuscle looks good, but what is with those weird center caps with the flaming M? I would want the Bullitt Center Cap with the pony. It says you can buy them seperately, but do those 2.5" center caps pop out? Anyone know about that?

I bought my wheels from that guy on Ebay. They shipped fast and came scratch/chip/dent/etc free when I recieved them. The wheels look great to me. Their customer service is great as well.

replica wheels are what everyone sells. if it's not OEM, it's a replica.
If it's OEM, it'll cost more. Mustangtuning.com, oem wheels direct, discount tire, Tire rack, all of them are replica wheels, and all center caps are interchangeable.
I ordered me a set of 17X9 black bullitts for $77 per wheel. Should be in this week.

if the caps didn't pop out, you'd have a damn hard time balancing the wheels, lol.
