I know these wheels are very common now but im really liking them :D.
Has anyone purchased the knock off cheaper wheels that are around 1500-1600 for the 20 inch version?
Genuine 20s from walky wheels start at around 2300-2800 delivered but have a lifetime warranty,the cheaper ones have 12 months warranty.
Just wondering if the cheaper ones buckle easy like most knock offs?
cheers
Walky wheels are knock off also, Walkinshaw never made 20inch or bigger wheels, Walky wheels are stamped with their name but as far as I have seen no other difference wouldn't be surprised if they are made in same factory as unbranded ones

I reckon after 13 months the op would have made his decision whether to buy them or not

Ended up picking up a new set of grey hsvi 20s before the prices went silly,still think the walkys look awesome though.

I dont know how to put up pics unfortunately,its a red ssv wagon,stock suspension,hsvi wheels are great,better looking than the stock ssv wheels but still look factory,not keen on lowering it,bit too old to choose form over function these days lol,would look alot better lowered;)
