Refinished OEM wheels

dekaliber · 03-29-2008, 02:42 PM

Anyone here have experience with using "refinished" OEM wheels? They generally come with a warranty on the finish but I'm wondering if they might come poorly balanced from the refinishing process. Also, how would one be able to verify that they were originally OEM wheels instead of replicas?

I'm looking here...http://www.finishlinewheels.com/?act...&page=products

Anyone buy from these guys before?

Finish line wheels is a reputable company. I know several people who have purchased chrome OEM rims from them. They used to offer a core exchange, where they would send you a chrome set of your wheels, and then you just send them back your set (in good condition) and you could get chome wheels on the cheap like that.

As far as making sure they are not replicas, they will still have the manufacturer's stamp on the back. You can always check that.
