Why are these so much more expensive? I looked on Ebay for AFS wheels because for some reason the shine on the chrome looks better than any other wheels I have seen. However they are much more expensive than what Tom has to offer for his replicas. Other than the better looking center cap and the price, whats the difference and is it worth it for the AFS's. Thanks for the help. Here is the link to both :

whats the difference between the O.E. concepts and the Factory Reproductions. For some reason the reproductions look different. Also is it me or do the AFS wheels have more of a shine of them than other wheels? Thanks for the help

The differece in the finish on these is probably going to be in just the picture. AFS did a very good job on the photography. The chrome on our wheels is very good quality and I am sure will look just as good in person. O. E Concept and Fatory Reproductions are great companies and we handle all their wheels. If we can help just call, 1-866-939-1030.
Thanks

It looks like AFS used a much brighter white surrounding/background which will reflect in the chrome better. Have you ever seen how bright chrome wheels look when they reflect a gravel sruface?
