Anyone try factory Replica Alloys from discount tire?
My car just turned 20,000 miles and my factory Goodyear Supercars have about had it. My car came with the polished 5 spokes but have thought about getting chrome. I am curious if anyone have purchased the chrome Replica Alloy wheels available from Discounttire? I am also thinking about staying away from runflats and going with a smoother riding, more quiet non-runflat tire. How is the quality of these replicas? Does anyone have pictures?
Reason I ask is I have had nothing but bad experience buying chrome replicas from the forum vendors (I wont mention any names here), but they have either had a very poor chrome job (eventually peeling and pitting), wheels being out of round and not balancing correctly. Just an all around hassle.
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks,
James
