    Replicas are not made with the same standards as OEM. If the area you're living in is pothole free where the roads are bettee than the DMV per say you should be ok.

    Reminds me when I got OZ wheels for my B6. They sure looked nice at the beginning, but talk about total junk. I wouldn't touch an OZ wheel for anything. I have had one other set of aftermarket that I can't remember the name of. They also were not nearly as good as OEMs. I don't know about Hartman Wheels. They look nice, but I don't know if I can trust anything aftermarket anymore.

    OZ made the OEM wheels for the 20th Anniversary GTI. Maybe built to different specs than their typical aftermarket wheels, but they tend to be regarded as a quality aftermarket wheel manufacturer along with BBS, Rays/Volk, HRE, etc.
