to me its the best compromise and classy, like you said. Others dont know that I changed the wheels and I get to have my fav wheels on the car.

no I did not

These are brooksmoto replicas, I was concerned about quality and finish but decided to take a risk. I posted detailed close up pictures from various angles to show that their reproduction is just like OEM, I cant find a single flaw, fault or quality issue.
They are doing a great job and I am happy to keep these wheels on my car

@Porsche_nuts

Did you go with the offsets they had, or go with a custom offset?

Not custom, what they offered.

Thanks for the information! I'm going to buy a set for my 2013 C2S Cab. I love the look of Fuchs style wheels and these seem a bargain.

Yes they are replicas, yes they are Chinese made.. but given how especially intricate the Fuchs replica wheels are (machined front) they did an excellent job

Please note that these are cell phone/hand held pictures and may not fully represent the quality of work.









I have a different set of Brooksmoto, the RS Weissach reps. Quality really impressed me, definitely forged. Just a little heavy (As heavy as OEM) but for street wheels, all good.

I want to say these are 27.5lbs front 29.5 rear for 20x9/11.5

Those Fuchs style look great on your car, totally OEM++
