I was looking at buying one of these but there are alot of fakes out there, can anyone tell if this one is genuine or not?

Tbh mate they look identical but the fakes are made of sh*te metal and flex really bad when fitted. Unless you buy direct or from a shop i would beware of paying top prices for a £10 fake.

An old saying springs to mind here.

Buy cheap, Buy twice.

Just had a look at that and its basically the same except 3" dish instead of 4"

Not heard of RMD before, they any good?

NO-MP steering wheel goes well with me fake Takata harnesses.

The steering wheel is made of chocolate, and the harnsesses sewn together with best intentions.

A winning combination imo.

Steve, just seen this on Facebook. This place (YB Racing) are selling of 'factory seconds' stock and are selling OMP Corsica wheels for £100 instead of £200. If you look at the listing you can see more.

These are 100% genuine as they are one of the main UK OMP suppliers.
