I've got a set of those wheels and I'm pretty happy wit them. My stock wheels are the 18" solid turbo twist wheels, and the replicas weigh a couple of pounds less, but that could be the tires. The difference really isn't that much. I'm running 275's rear and 235's front, and they fill out the wheel wells much nicer than the stock wheels did, even with 15mm spacers on them. One area where the replicas don't measure up to Porsche's is the quality of the finish. There are a couple of spots on the wheels where the clear coat is a bit rough. With a good respray and a wet sanding, I'm sure they would be just as nice. I suppose that's where a bit of cost was spared.
