OEM 'style' is not OEM. :)

That's the standard price for a set of platinum reps without tires, tpms, etc ... in fact it's a little too much.

Did you read their claim that this is BETTER than the OEM wheels?! It says:

"** BETTER THAN OEM **
How can we make such a claim? Here's how: The original wheel from Cadillac is made strictly to a (limited) price point. GM has had it's financial challenges these past few years and have been squeezing value (and quality) whereever possible, including your original OEM Cadillac Escalade 22" wheels. Why are you reading this listing right now? Probably because one of yours is bent or even cracked. How did that happen? Because the original OEM Escalade 22" wheels in this style are among the LOWEST quality wheels I've ever seen, that's how that (usually) minor incident ruined your wheel. So why does the Cadillac dealer get over $1300 for this wheel at his parts counter? Because there are 5 or even 6 layers of profit between the particular factory where your wheel was made, and your local dealer's parts counter.
That all being said, we have been making OUR wheel in this same exact design for 2 years now, to a HIGHER Quality standard. We have easily sold several thousand and have yet to hear one quality complaint. Not only is the chrome as-good or better than the OEM wheel, the wheel does NOT bend nor crack nearly as-easily. We haven't had one single quality issue yet! And because you are dealing with the manufacturer - well, you can see the great value.
Better than OEM and at a great price. It's that simple."

Oh goodie ... then he'll have no problem selling you his oem set for the same price. http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-2012-Re...es&hash=item27c72e677b&vxp=mtr#ht_3858wt_1136 :manos:

Btw, this is what he says on his oem set listing:

These rims are Genuine GM/Cadillac and not aftermarket as ALL the other "Escalade Platinum style" rims on eBay are. They have been manufactured to GM's EXACTING standards for engineering and finish quality. They are made of the highest quality materials and tested for finish durability in the harshest climates, because they come on new Cadillac Escalades and will be subject to GM's new vehicle warranty. As-such, GM has a standard for their factory wheels that is unmatched in the aftermarket.

What an ******.

Don't ever buy, or consider buying, or even look at stuff without clearing it with us first.

Your my best customer, you should know after all the pleasure parties you and jdpber have held.....

Nahh, I was gonna dabble in the adult toys business but just kinda dropped it since I found out I was gonna have my first kid. Awesome margin on that stuff no matter what the brand. Just cant have "toys" around the house and kiddo asking "whats this for daddy"....

you want the ones Jacob left at my house? They are beginning to ferment, but a little 10:1 bleach/h20 should take care of it.
