There are many people who don't want to drop $4k on Volks so they get some Varrstoens. Are they worse? Sure, but they'll also be fine for a daily driver. I have nothing against people buying these and using them, just as long as they know they're not the real deal.
Replica's are not fine for daily driving, that is why they say NOT FOR ROAD USE when you look at websites that sell them. The reason for that is being NO REPLICA IS CERTIFIED, and trust me that matters. Driving on replica's is like driving on a ticking time bomb, go look up "varrstoen broke" or "rota broke" on google and tell me that doesn't scare you. Plus replica's are still stealing the design of a company that has gotten their wheels certified.

I have never seen any replica say that they're not for road use. And yes, they build quality is of course not as good as the name brands (I have seen the Volk vs. Varrstoen video where they test impact damage). What I do realize is that most people are running suuuuper skinny 30 and even 25 profile tires with these wheels, which is essentially just asking for a problem even when DDing.
And yes, they are stealing the design. This is the biggest issue with replicas, but then again, it's a trade off. I would love if everyone supported the real brands, but not everyone has that kind of cash, hence, there's a market for replicas. IDK, no reason to condemn people for buying the replicas, just celebrate those that buy the originals.

Yes just a cover but looks like a hole will need to be drilled due to the light sensor on the rear view mirror to automatically turn on headlights when it gets dark.
