Very concerning. Imagine if someone buys a set of imitation Brembos not knowing they're fake (for example, if bought used) and uses them on the track, and they fail in a hard 100+ mph braking zone. The result will not be pretty.
I have no issues if some company wants to create cheap knock-off BBKs, but don't try to pass them off as the real thing.
On imitation wheels, there's probably less chance for massive failure than with brakes, but I thought this video (Wedsport testing of imitation wheels) was enlightening. Sometimes it helps to see the difference visually.
