mixing replica and oem wheels?
Hi Everyone,

Quick question, is there any reason to avoid mixing using Replica and OEM style 87 wheels? I found a set of them, but 2 are reps and 2 are OEM. Is there any reason to be concerned?

Thanks!

Only by a few ounces, if you keep them both in front or both in the rear I have found that their is no noticeable difference.
