Ok - moving on from the rip-offs thread, got me thinking - what are the best replicas available as i dont want to spend 1k+ on alloys for my car

I know of a few - dare (around £400 a set), calibre, lenso's but what are the closest to the real thing and what size looks best (on my green cab) - 16" or 17", and what size tyres should i be looking to get?

Thanks

Q

These are the specs of ones i've been looking at on ebay etc. Would be interesting to see a set, or hear from anyone who has bought them - they look good value for money, for what they are. Very good offsets too - et15 on the 8s and 20 on the 9"s last set I saw.

Also, Rav - they were a bargain! I wish i'd seen them.
