don't call me a poseur. I can't afford the real M6 wheels... that simple!

I have no idea which company makes the best but i will tell you that all replicas i have seen differ from the originals in terms of design.Replicas do not look the same as originals
Here is a replica
And here OEM 167s.You can see that the spokes are not straight on the replicas.All of them that i have seen are like that or similar.
Hope this helps a little

I heard Moven are good. Member kjc625 has some that he wants to sell. You should PM him. I'll vouch for him being an upstanding guy. Besides, he's one of LA's finest, a policeman.
