GP Replicas??

While there are several hundred threads on GP replicas, none answered my question:

Where can you buy these? I've scoured ebay for weeks as well as every semi-credible-made-in-taiwan wheel website known to man. I'm looking specifically for 17".

Thanks!

Many have asked...I shall answer...

http://www.alloywheelsdirect.net/bmw...r107_wheel_446

the price is around $1360 US and they are the real thing !! This is the only place I have found a reasonable price( the dealer here in Kuwait wants 164 KD per wheel....656 KD total....656.00 KWD=2,450.69 USD)!!!!

You are welcome

WOW! I would LOVE to have those!!!

Unfortunately, I just don't have the $1360 to throw around on wheels. I'm kind of contemplating GP replicas, due to the assumption they'll be MUCH less.

Thanks a ton for the info though! Maybe someday...

This should be in the wheel forum. How about these?

They look "inspired by GP" to me. Borbet LV.
