Ok where to start? Firstly piccies, we like piccies.

1. Don't know where you'd buy replica's apart from the obvious, flebay.
2. 245 on a 20 seems a bit narrow, 245 was the standard size for an 18" wheel.
3. I'm currently running 18" RS4 style replicas and have no issues with them now i have the right size tyre. I have however had cracks on the inside edge of the wheels from potholes and had them repaired, with no issues regarding welding.
4. As far as i'm aware D2, D3 makes no difference.
5. My reasons will differ to others but price would be the driving factor for me.

I watched a set of 4 20" RS6 alloys all listed separately go for under £100 with one of them needing a repair because of cracked inside edge, easy repair. I should have had them really but i thought it was a con all being listed separately but there you go.
