Replica wheels

[h2100]

Hey Guys,

Any thoughts about replica wheels/rims? I'm interested in the chrome snowflake 20" wheel for my 2019 'hoe. I see places sell replicas.

Will I see issues with these over time?

I talked to the place where i bought my wheels. He mainly sells OE factory takeoffs but will order replicas for folks who want the larger sizes. He said they are usually just as good as factory, sometimes a tad heavier, but recommended to avoid the cheap ass tires that usually are included.

I run them all the time and the Chevy dealership I work at sells a lot of them.

Call me stupid, ignorant (take your pick), I’ve always thought these were the GM “Snowflakes”:


Similar spoke design as above, but significantly different face design. These here are more of a concave face, and the ones above are a much more flat face design.

I bought some 22” reps from
@NathanJax and they’re great. Good dude to deal with too. I highly recommend him. And no they’re not snowflakes.

If they're not snowflakes, what are they? Thought they were.

Snowflakes have a different design but are similar. They have more angles.
