    cracked OEM wheel

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Bad news. I've had a slow leak on one of my tires and it turns out there's a crack on the inside of the wheel. It's not repairable. So now I have the option of paying almost $800 to buy an OEM wheel or buy a new set of aftermarket wheels. I know the OEM wheels aren't the lightest wheels ever made but I really like the look and would prefer to keep the stock look. Before I start looking at aftermarket wheels, is anybody aware of a company that makes knock-offs of the OEM wheel. That way I can buy those, keep the stockers in the garage, and hopefully at some point find an OEM wheel at a better price. Thanks for the help guys.

    I assume you're looking at the "RS4" wheels? VMR makes a quality replica. And you should be able to pick what color you want the finish.

    Damn that sucks--There are replicas but good luck finding OEM 19 x 9 et 29 specs. I do recall seeing a set pop up recently...I think it was username FWP?
