I believe they should have Overfinch stamped in one of the spokes

I will definatly flag that up, if they won't replace I will ask for £1000 off price to source some original wheels myself. Cheers people.

The biggest problems with fakes is that they are made to a price for those not willing to buy the originals ergo made cheaper.

I doubt the dealer will drop £1k - if he don't - see if there's another Sport on the forecourt with original RR alloys - I had replica 22 Stormers - a bag of all 4 had cracks

Oh and just see if they'll swap them over you mean? Yeah I had a set of RS6 replicas on my TT, and 2 buckled and 1 cracked within 6 months !! Hurrendous issues! Never again! |

That's the same place i got my sport from, quick to take the cash. Service after that was terrible. Current 2010 Range Rover Sport HSE with the usual toys: timed climate, Rosen headrest screens, tow bar with twin electrics, Blackvue HD cam

I had an issue with the turbo actuator valve that had to be replaced under warranty within 7 weeks of collecting the car. Then recently the battery was faulty, i had to argue and throw all my toys out of the cot to get it sorted.
