did you buy a spare cheap wheel? Chances are good that they'll be out of production when you need a replacement, leaving you to pay $150 for a wheel repair to your local specialist, same as if you would have kept the Volks

Check out the SSR Type C wheels at TireRack.com. 9lbs in 15x7", 11.5 in 16x7". They are very sturdy, and priced great compared to BBS, for example.

My 17" Volk TE-37's (about 15 lbs. each)
Here are my new forged 3-piece SSR VF-1's (though they are not very light)

These are NOT forged. They are low pressure cast.

Replica wheels are forgeries.
