UA wheels. Rep 611m.

Tirish1 · 07-21-2021, 09:50 AM

Anyone have any experience with a company called UA wheels? These are on eBay for an extremely good price. 611m reps. My concern is the strength of the wheel over other options.

Wow. I am also interested. Do they have good reviews as a seller on EBay?

Structural integrity of rep wheels will always be a concern. You can of course inquire with the seller as to whether the wheels have any relevant certifications, but that is prob a longshot. I don't have experience with reps, but from what I understand, they are likely going to be more susceptible to bending than OEM. There is a vendor here who sells low-pressure cast (which is superior to gravity cast, which is how most ebay wheels are manufactured) 611m reps for about the same price. You may want to follow-up with them first. Good luck.

Do you know by chance who the seller is on here?

Anyone have a review for wcstylewheels?

lonestar22 · 08-29-2021, 02:57 PM

These wheels are just as strong as oem. But not any stronger.

Someone posted about a 22" 611m rep on here. I think it's in the 22" wheel thread. Haven't seen any complaints from them since.

Unfortunately, I can't find these in a 22" now, otherwise I'd be tempted to snatch some up.

EDIT: Correction, they were 612m reps in 22", but I do believe they were from the same wcstylewheels.
