Beware of replicas 850 1995

One of the reasons that OEM Volvo wheels are so expensive is that they use high-quality alloy that resists bending - replicas may look the same, but are often constructed from softer alloy that'll bend if you look at it.

I have seen many people bemoaning their lot with bent cheap wheels - I'd either get another OEM wheel, or get yours fixed.
