Having a look and I dont mind the look at the Lenso's wheels that Arith found.
The question is how good are Lenso's or Rota wheels that are making copies of our premium wheel companys like Advan, Rays and Volk advertise on ebay ?
These copies look great but are they worth it. I am in market to purchase my second set of wheels and I dont wont to make that error.
Kind Regards.

Lenso's, Rota and many copies are good for their purpose - that is they'll improve the look of your car. Generally a copy wheel will be heavier than the original due to using inferior metals they require more of them to obtain the required wheel strength.
BUT in this instance, what do you want the wheels for? If you want new wheels to improve the look of your car without a
noticeable peformance difference on the street then copies can be fine (accelleration may decrease by .2 or .3 of a sec for 0-100 but you wouldnt feel it). If you are planning on using your car at the track and unsprung weight is an issue for you, then genuine wheels are probably the way to go.
And with regard to the Tenzo Type M - they will not look like that in a liberty fitment! That is an 18x9.5" +25 wheel in that photo, and the 18x8 +45 has no dish to the spokes, and in fact the spoke sits proud of the rim
- avoid at all cost!
