Anyone seen these wheels or used Great Lakes Takeoffs to buy ?

I have the usual clear coat corrosion on my wheels and gonna need tires soon. Saw these from the above company for a decent price. Im sure China but would be a ton cheaper than refurbing my factory wheels. Tires are same as what I have now and ride good. Not speed high rated but not worried about that. Tire Rack has the tires alone for 250+ Tax etc each. This set is wheels and tires 1250 shipped + the government cut. Probably no TPS included or black lugs.

Wheels in question. Rather have gloss black. These may just be painted not powder

I snagged a set of 4 Silvy take-offs for about $500 when I moved up to the 20" wheels. Safe to assume those are replicas?

Yes they. Not sure if they are any good, porous or whatever. Guess its a crapshoot. I look at original wheels and they all have the same clearcoat issues in the midwest and they still want too much for them. Im gonna drop in the wheel refinisher that has their shop out where I take care of a car collection for a fellow. Maybe they can fix and powdercoat but I need tires anyway and these things seem reasonable for the new tires and wheels.

Worse case, you end up with a "Winter" wheel - I saved the wheels that the reseller installed on my SSV for that reason but have not had a reason to use.
