Repros??
I'm thinking about buying some 19' repro Lorinser LM5 from highline wheels in Florida. They "of course" say that they are great and that you can barely tell the difference. They come with the regular 1 year warrenty and are about 1/3 the price of real LM5's. Is it worth taking a chance because I can't afford $4,000 - $5,000 rims? Thanks Eric

you have a benz, enjoy it as is for awhile unitl you save up enough loot to get the real thing, or pick a set of rims that isn't way too taxed. knock off parts on a benz just isn't the way to go, dont sell yourself or your new car short.
