Bigtoe - Are these reproduction wheels or OEM's? How can you tell the difference between the two? Did you decide to keep your old wheels or sell them? Just trying to figure out which route it the best way to go. Also looking to save a few bucks if I can, but I would hate to look back several years from now and wish I still had the stock wheels....????....

Darren,

These are repros. I'm not sure how to tell the difference in all of them but I believe these are cast not forged. (some rough edges on the inside).

I did sell my oems but I could have exchanged them also. I don't think I'd ever need the oems again so I got a little money back by selling them. :)
