C230 Sedan - 6 spd.
Question Replica wheels on eBay... anyone?

I wanted to buy some wheels for my sedan and was wondering if anyone have had good/bad experiences they can share with eBay.

Fake Brabus 01

Fake Brabus 02

The descriptions look great because they are supposed to be hub-centric. Probably made in Taiwan. Seems a little shady since both ads are exactly the same except for the usernames, phone numbers, and emails. What do you think? If not these, can you reccomend a place to get wheels in Southern California? Thanks for helping out a fellow member.

Go to TWS(The Wheel Supply) in walnut. They sell Moven wheels who make replica's of a number of major brand wheels including Brabus. They make a nice replica of the monoblock VI's. These are probably the same wheels they are auctioning off on Ebay.

Got those in 17" on my C320. I'm happy with them. Yes you will see a listing for two different people. They both work at the same place. Maybe a little sales comission issue at work. If you get these make sure that they will give the fake Brabus center caps also in addition to the MB ones.
