Better to be safe than sorry! I think you will be disappointed if you buy replica wheels.....unless they got good reputation.

How to tell real or fake by offset? I just know the oem 17" is et20.
all Taiwan rims need spacers to have a good fit.

I've seen a BBS LM replica, looks 95% like the mine, not sure about the weight, but you can go ask the shop
I found them displaying at Ling-C-Fu (???) at Prince Edward (Tel: 2778 8183):

For your information, RAYS forged rims (Made in Japan) cost you 5K-7K per pc.
Good luck on the search. Happy modding.

I live in the east of HK side and will go to Cyber Port to take a walk with my dog quite frequent. Well, I agree HK side has more cars stuck on the road and so many buses. If you are looking for a very high speed, HK side is not suitable.

For the route to Shek O, Stanley Bay...etc the road is a one way road and you almost has no chance to pass over other cars because it is double white line all the way.
