Thank you

No but with over 20,000 buyers I think you're okay.

I've bought from them twice. No problems. Wheels are excellent. Jbimmer24 is right about the centers, which is no problem either IMO.

I got 87’s from them. Excellent wheels, packed in double box, center caps included. Mechanic who was balancing the wheels told me that wheels are “straight” which means very good quality, easy to balance. So no problems so far.

We have some nicer 20" wheels but to each his own. I think you're safe buying from there.

Not from that seller, but I do have those same replica wheels.

The seller seems reputable...good luck!
