You mean replicas? Those Works aren't a whole lot cheaper, no.

hanabie · 09-29-2013, 10:38 PM

No somewhere cheaper than LM. Similar style. XXR 521 is unfortunately too heavy.

Give or take around $700 per wheel new, but i would rather buy them second hand for $2k if i wanted them, Not cheap but great quality and they look badass. Another option is ESM -004

hanabie · 09-30-2013, 04:57 AM

Okay how is esm wheels quality? It seems reasonable weight compared to XXR. Cheap too lol

hanabie · 09-30-2013, 05:19 AM

Not sure if I want dump that cash for unknown wheels. For few more $$, I could get quality wheels like Enkeis. Pass..

Another option: Linea Corse Lemans wheels

They'll run you about $1200 a set from Wheeldude - a little on the heavy side at around 26lbs per wheels for 18s(IIRC). They are made in the philipines, just like Rotas and I Haven't heard any negative comments towards them as far as quality but hard to compare to BBS or Work

wow.

Algernon Intelesse. You can find used sets for decent prices.
