FX50 Replicas

[vicdub85]

These are the only 6 spoke FX50 replica wheels I have ever been able to find. They are produced by a company called IPW (http://ipw.bayspeedaerokit.com/) in Brooklyn, NY.

Unfortunately they are 20x8.

They don't have any email for me to inquire why they can't produce 21x9.5

The only place I have found them sold so far is ebay.

[Ed@TunerStore]

+1 don't go with replica wheels, unless the company has an ISO certificate or something

I've actually had good experiences with oem wheel replica companies with my audi a4. Plus, you can't find a 20" oem wheel with the 21" style.
I do plan on contacting the seller and asking about the quality though.

The fact that they don't have a contact email should be very concerning. I wouldn't trust any company that doesn't clearly have contact information or some sort of customer service channel.

It took me a few months of searching, but I eventually found a set of OEM 21's in great condition at a great price. Post an ad up in the Wanted section of this forum, and I'm sure you'll eventually find a set. I had a few members reach out to me when I did that.

The thing with 21s is I hear they are not very comfortable to ride on and finding tires for them is quite difficult and expensive. I haven't had a chance to contact the ebay vendor, but they have a phone number and 100% positive reviews.

Got it. Best of luck w/ the vendor.

Just a quick FYI, some folks have been putting 275/45/21's on their OEM 21's, and I'm hearing the ride is cushier (also a few more tire options at that size vs OEM 265/45/21). I just ordered a set of pirelli scorpion's myself at $143 per tire, so I'm hoping the ride isn't harsh. I'm currently on OEM 20's, and the ride is already a bit stiff, so I'm not expecting too different a change when I swap to the 21's.

For $1k for a replica set just save up another ~$500 for the real thing.... Not worth saving a few bucks that you'll have to spend later fixing bends and cracks.
