To be honest it's tough to tell.
It's not until they are exposed to the elements that you can tell, Obviously, the price gives some indication, but the best way I found is through a referral of somebody who already has the product.

Buy from a forum vendor.
Most offer lifetime warrantee on the wheels and 3 years on the Chrome.
I bought mine from Nate at Corvette garage.
OTher friends have bought at TomZwheels

Buy from a reputable vendor and look for the guarantee on the chrome and structural integrity. Many offer a three year warranty on the chrome plating. I bought a set from Xtreme Motorsports and they held up very, very well.

I agree-my C5 motorsport wheels also had a three year warranty and were like new when sold after three years of use.
