Has anyone come across alloys like these?

They seem to be replicas of the M4/M6 alloys, but at a fraction of the cost and cheaper than many others. Anyone know who they are made by, the quality, worth purchasing?

Is that price for all 4? If so, it bet they're heavy as hell, and/or weak as hell. Most replica wheels seem to be pretty cheaply made and have all sorts of issues with balancing etc. I've never looked into these specific wheels but that trend is common on cheap replicas.

I went with Apex wheels. They're fairly priced for a quality rim

CM Wheels have a good rep and a large customer base in the UK section. If you head over there they are a site sponsor and advertise the wheels in the UK section at a discount to their website. Free postage.

Suggest you head over there. I have CSL reps and they are fine. They meet all European standards.
