I can't personally comment on replica wheels, but have to commend Marcin on his comprehensive response. I would avoid the multi-fit wheels with 10 stud holes, which shows my expertise on the matter.

I did however quote one part of his post which I believe sums it all up. I know this isn't about safety of the item as such, but look on the back of the phones made by probably the two biggest manufacturers of them, and what does it say... 'Assembled in China'.
