According to the properties on the images, their Baosh R196 wheels, and they're a Chinese company specializing in replicas. These don't look exactly like BBS ZCP/CSL wheels - they look more like reps of the 1-series M wheel, whch share the same spoke design but the spokes poke out a bit from the outer rim and then sharply angle downward at the hub. Compare that to the way my CSLs look - more smoothly convex from the outer rim to the hub.

No you shouldn't. No one should run cheap replica's out of China. Buy a quality wheel. You didn't cheap out on your car, why on the wheels?... one of the most important components.

Those look like replicas of the Competition style wheels that you would find on the 1M.
However, those look like the cheaper low quality gravity cast versions from China.
If you are looking for something of higher quality, take a look at our Avant Garde M359 wheels
These wheels are low pressure cast, which are going to be lighter and stronger than the gravity cast versions.
