My argument is that real wheels are not much more expensive then reps. You can get a used set for really cheap and refinish, OR get a used set that is in okay condition if you don't feel like refinishing. There are plenty of used, real wheels for good prices if you're smart enough to look around in the right places. And at the other end of the cycle there are plenty of wheel whores and trendy fags with money that will be happy to suck your dick and pay you the same amount or even more then what you initially payed.

Now lets see, real wheels that you can end up eventually selling and breaking even, making it pretty much free to run them, or reps that you buy brand new and will probably lose half of your money if you do eventually sell them.
