They're not, some people just suck at math.

My theory: OE reps are identical to originals in how they are made (1pc, cast), and they're better than original when it comes to offset (people like more aggressive), so OE reps make a lot of sense... We all know LM reps are fairly inferior to the real thing (3pc forged vs. 1pc cast) so even without the caps, it's a bit of a deception because without a very close inspection, most people would think they're looking at real LMs... Of course, you really don't have to give a damn what people think. You're not trying to pass them off as real LMs (I hope) so don't worry about it.
Personally, if I really wanted LM look alikes without the LM price, I'd go with a set of Rial Daytona Race wheels.
