It's also not like the cars don't come with functional wheels...

Non knock off options:

Stock wheels. Amazing concept, I know...

Inexpensive original wheels.

Used big-dollar original wheels in good shape. There are plenty of rich trend chasers that flip wheels. I had some retardedly light JDM forged monobloc Volk/TRD wheels on my Supra. New they would have cost more than I paid for the car. I got them for a song as the previous owner was upgrading. This is where you trade time for money looking for the right set in the right condition. It can be fun and/or challenging. Let someone else take the depreciation.

New quality original wheels. Depending how far up the forged monobloc ladder you go, this can get painfully expensive very fast. Then change them in a year or two after taking good care and selling at a good price to your less fortunate forum brothers or sisters. Win for everyone!
