Any thoughts on Lexani Tires

Anyone have any insight on lexani Tires for GL550?

I need tires like now and spilt between getting 20" replica's and reasonably priced tires or buying the Lexani tires for $700 and put on the OEM 21" wheels.

The issue is I can't seem to find a solid review for Lexani Tires.

A set of 21" tires installed will run $1900 to $2000, and the d not last long.

All insight are welcome.

Thanks in advance.

I have them on our 2011 GL 450 and they have not given me any issues. I have them on a set of 22" custom wheels.
