I've got a set kicking about. Personally very pleased with them, but the centre caps aren't very well secured at all.

I'd say they look to be the same quality except for the centre caps.
Not sure if the larger centre caps are better retained, but where the wheel bolts are on show, the little cap that has a little badge on it is really poorly made and fitted.
These are all just my opinions though.

A good friend has a set on his car - replica Hallibrand 'knock off' wheels with polished rims. Both the rims and centres corroded terribly in less than one year/1500 miles. He then sent them back to Image to be refurbished which took them two attempts because at their first attempt they didn't even do what they said they would do! He was pretty much disgusted by their service and attitude and would have rather have bought such wheels from the US.
Of course, this is only his experience and opinion of Image.
