GP look-alike wheels!

i might one day put these on my R50, except i'll replace the center logos with a legit MINI logo or a JCW logo.

what do you guys think? do they look like cheap knockoffs, or close-on copies? and would they look good on an R50?

To me they look more like the JCW Wheels than the wheels that came on my GP. I actually like these JCW rims and think they would look great on the GP.
