They're just 1 piece, no covers... I thought they looked like the real deal myself so I jumped on them... There's some other replica's on ebay now - take a look at these:

Are they supposed to be mimicing throwing stars, I don't know?
Yours look pretty good for one piece replicas. That auction for the other set is more like the standard replicas I've seen.
The ghetto replicas always seem to be one sided (real deal has right & left sided wheels). As your replicas are nicer than I've even seen, are there right & left sided wheels to your set?

T-Stars are 5 spoke wheels with a magnesium cover. Some are cast, some are forged. Luckily the set that was stock on my car was of the forged variety. I personally prefer the covers to be on the wheels. The forged ones (17 x 8) weigh 19 pounds with the cover, 17 pounds without as I recall.

Nice find, but you went from Liverpool to Swindon for wheels? Nutter! They will look damn good when on though, especially with the sport bodykit.

Hey - I know I'm but it was so worth the 7hr road trip! LOL! They look awesome... Just need to get some pic's of them and post! They've made a difference ride-wise too, it was a bit firm with the lowering springs and the 18" wheels on it...
Almost sold my wheels already too, got a guy coming up tomorrow to have a look at them...
