Are these Chinese rip offs of what?

This store also has BBS wheels for $800

I sent a msg to the seller asking him if it's chinese rip offs or originals ;)

It says styling so fake

Ive seen said knock offs on alibaba.com etc etc when I was looking at getting my own branded rims made up before like Ultrex did.

They have the logo's and centre cap but are definite china made knock offs.

Says it all in the description/title "ADVAN RS [COLOR="Red"][U]Styling[/U][/COLOR]"

OK I thought so ...damn bastards...

I also found "made in Taiwan" OZ Racing wheels LOL

ok good to know to stay away from anything that says "Styling"

Anyway I'll buy from a reputable AU vendor when I'm ready to get some, but just happened to come across these, thought I'd check.

Thanks

Also this line implies they are copies

[I]An impression of the original merchandize, the wheels sport exquisite and brilliant design. Elegant in style, and at a competitively affordable bargain, get your hands on these wheels.[/I]

Also check the top left image where the 1st "A" is shit 2nd "A" in ADVAN is even more dodgy. ;)
