It is funny to me how everyone hates on Chinese stuff as if there's nothing in their household that is made in China. be real, that isn't the case. Do I support China? no, I don't think anyone here does. But just to comment on a post to show your disdain for Chinese products is of no use to anyone, and it's stupid. Noone is 100% China free.
Nevermind the fact that capitalism and free trade is what creates competition, forcing American companies to do even better to compete and stay viable in the market. While cheap immitation knock offs are bad when sold as something they aren't, Chinese made similiar are not knock offs technically.
These wheels i posted about are not 16". They are a different size, and width than factory, and come in two additional finishes that the factory version does not offer. These are are different wheel. They Look like factory, but aren't a 16" identical wheel made in China. THAT is a knock off. And the pro grills everyone's running- guess where most of those are made....
that cell phone you're using....ain't made in Texas.
Etc etc....
Im a veteran. Pro American, and as patriotic as they come, but I'm realistic too. While I'm not a spokesman for those replica wheels, they do have a warranty on them offered, so they can't be total garbage, and if they are, there's a warranty which if nothing else protects you as a buyer through Paypal and Ebay buyer protection.
I have to remember daily that this is the internet and this kind of stupidity is to be expected. If i read a post and didn't have anything constructive to add, I would move along, but thats just me.

I will say I didnt realize the 3rd gen pro wheels were 16".
I am not 100% against China made, just when it's not worth it. I looked into those rims myself and dont see a point if knockoffs that cost the same as the real deal.

the point for me is the 17" size that they offer.

OP I can shed some light on the topic. The eBay wheels you’re looking at are manufactured by the company I work for and are being sold through one of our dealers it seems. We produce reproduction wheels in various sizes, finishes, weights and construction. We also offer a lifetime manufacturer warranty and all of our wheels meet/exceed JWL/VIA safety strength standards. Here’s a link to our website to learn more about our wheels and a few threads about both the Pro Style and 2020 Pro style we offer:
