They look like fakes. Only way to know for sure is to pull the wheels. If you sell them let me know.

Fake or not, they look good. Is there a downside to AEW brand other than no name recognition?

Where do Xenon's come in as far as strength? I have a set of 3 that were on my 944 I'm not sure what I want to do with (C2 turbos going back on it). They look right and seems prety strong (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |
