Does anyone make replica OEM 18s...

I'd like to get a set to use for my snows but I don't want to pay the OEM price. Thanks.

gotta be cheaper than reps... they have been anywhere from $1,200 to $2,000 usually for used almost new OEMs. I picked up a set in perfect condition with PS2s that are almost new including TPMS shipped across country for $1,650

+1.

The 18" e9x M3 replicas I've seen are of terrible quality.
