Default TE37 cup knockoffs ?? WTF ?

anyone ever seen these wheels before ? have any experience with them ? yea yea i know there a knockoff, but i cant afford real TE cups + my car isnt being tracked just yet so try to keep the hating at a minimum.

sounds like a pretty generic company. to me

but i was just wonderin anyone have some pics of these, or some real TE37 cups on some cars ? would really like to see white on EBP but anything will do really.

cups are deff. sick.

and i dont think tehre is anything wrong with replica wheels either. granted i wouldnt trust them out on the track or anything , but for street driven wheels, why not. i wouldnt be to happy to blast a massive Ohio pothole with some real deal TEcups. haha

why? a forged wheel is going to hold up better against a pothole then a cast knockoff.

the knockoffs could have actually been in production longer than the real deal. I remeber seeing them a long time ago, before i heard of the cups.

As for thier style, they look great in theory, but i have yet to see a car really work well with them
