Jerry's prices are $200-300 higher than others online. There's better deals to be had. Plus he's hard to communicate with when you do try and 'bargain' with him. He takes things personally and comes off very unprofessional.

I bought from this seller, very good quality. I was local so I went to pick up, extremely friendly. They have a warehouse that stocks these wheels.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=43960

I got my 18"s with tires 224 front and 245 rear $1100 out the door. Hes selling 20"s for $799...so I think its a better deal than the $1300 you found. You can email the seller and see if he has 19's. Hope that helps

Those are the 'cheaper' replicas. Not as nice IMHO. Pay the extra $200-400 and get a better finish.

DAMN! So I got the 'cheaper' replicas?? HAHAHHahahAHH I never knew even replicas have quality level...maybe if you care so much about quality even on replicas then you should get some better quality ones. To me...they are all the same, no one is gonna look at yours and say "WOW! you got some good quality replicas!" you know what I mean....I can imagine people go "Damn nice Brabus.." but do they really care about replicas? I dont know maybe its just me, I wanna get the cheapest replicas possible, coz to me a fake is a fake...why spend so much on something thats fake!? Either you dont buy it, or simply buy the real ones. Thats why I dont understand why chicks will spend $$$$ to get fake ***** !!! :p HahaHha
