Anyone know much about these MSR Rims? I seen some that are tenzo replicas and they are the style I want for half the price. My question is what will I be sacraficing besides the brand name if I cheap out? Are the replicas heavier? Balanced the same ect? About to pull the trigger on rims but I'm on the fence. Leaning towards saving money.

exactly why i bought the MSR rims half the price of the other top brands but still great quality. they are Eagle Alloys MSR wheels.
here they are on my car:

mike you've seen my tenzos no? look just like robs but there 18's and more concave. IMO they look the same as 17" tenzo type M's

i cant remember how much they weigh and don't know all the differences but i love the rims. but if your going to buy replica rims, id get MSRs over other replica brands.

i saw a few craigslist posts with brand new MSR 18s for 550. They look great for replicas but hows the quality? are there issues of bending, cracking etc?
What about MSR vs. Rota?

ive heard nothing but bad things about Rota, MSRs are good quality they're made by Eagle Alloy which is a well known brand.

Dont go with either bro. MSR are tenzo knock offs. and tenzo's are found on 66% of cars on this fourm. the worst thing is too pull up to a car next to your with identical wheels.
You got yourself a nice speed3 dont cheap out and get cheap rims. save your $$ and buy a nice set of volks or rx8 r3's.

Rotas also come in sizing (width offset wise) that some of the real ones don't come in so they look more aggressive in some cases.
