Has anyone here heard anything good or bad about RH wheels? I realy want AC Schnitzer Type II's for my Z4 but can't justify the 2K expense. The RH rep has a similiar look for 1/3 the cost. Thanks in advance. GH

Find a used set of type 2's you won't regret it. Just be patient. Favorite wheel of all time as you can see

This is more of a rant on ACS wheels than it is on the replicas. ACS wheels are way overpriced. They are heavy, cast, one piece wheels that are not worth the 2K they ask. Why spend 2K for a heavy, cast, one piece wheel when you can spend a 1/3 as much for another heavy, cast, one piece wheel that looks exactly the same? I think that is the reason why ACS cut down so hard on the replica wheels, because they knew they were offering a poorly made product at a hugely inflated price.

So yeah, I'd get the relicas in a heart beat, or buy real ACSs used. I would, however, pick up an extra wheel or two. There are two downsides to replicas, 1. they can get damaged easily 2. when you damage one you may be unable to find a replacement due to the company getting shut down for copyright infringement. We just had this issue with my sister's lightweight replicas. Two of them are bent. They still hold air, they just shake a little when driving. It took me a long time to find a place that sells lightweight replicas because BMW really cut down on their production.
