Amg Replica 19s from eBay

Anyone had issues with amg replica wheels from eBay, I am thinking about getting a set of 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 45mm offset both. Will I have any rubbing issues with this offset and 235/35/19 fronts and 245/35/19. I have to replace my rims I took off my a4 that are rubbing. These seem like a deal at $750 with free shipping.

eBay is just a marketplace. They don't make wheels, so it is impossible to answer your question. The wheels could be great or poor...no way to know. Why not deal with an established aftermarket discount wheel source such as:

Thanks for the links, I know eBay does not make the wheels. I was referring in general to the knock off wheels that are common on eBay. I have had them before on my BMW and had no complaint other than bending them on pot holes pretty easy.

I think you missed the point of his comment.

Because eBay is a marketplace, and they do not manufacture the wheels, there is no way of us knowing how the quality will be unless you point us towards a specific vendor.

Even then, since the origin/supplier/manufacturer of the product is usually unknown or kept secret, in the best interests of the seller, the quality can vary wildly.

Without you giving us a little more information, we can only guide you towards vendors we have had positive experiences with.

As for the tire size/offset question, it has been beat into the ground many many times - you just have to look.
