Hi all - so I've found a set of used Breyton Race GTS wheels with some yokos for about $1500 (can probably knock off some more money if there's bad curbing). I'm trying to decide between them or getting a new set of replicas with new tires for $2k. My question is does anyone know if the Breytons are all show or are they actually a better engineered wheel than your typical chinese manufactured replica? I know the Breytons are manufactured in germany, but they're gravity cast just like the Miros. Thoughts?

Miros are completely different than the breytons and actually get your facts straight. Miro produces many of their own wheels which are NOT replicas. You really have no idea what you are talking about. And the 111's are a prime example of a miro original wheel. Just because something has a similar spoke pattern doesn't mean it's a replica. You're clueless. Apparently I know the company better than you. Much better I'd say because in own 3 cars currently that run miro original wheels. An e55 with miro 111's, an M5 with miro 111's and a 530i m-tech with Miro 942's
You seem confused because Miro does make high quality replicas of oem wheels... But they do also have plenty of their own designs on top of replicas they make which are clearly sold as replica "style" wheels.

I'm still not seeing how you think the miros are a replica of the breyton gts. They are completely different wheel styles and the miros are so much more concave and have a completely different style on the spokes they look nothing alike just because they have a Y spoke pattern? Replica pretty sure that means " an exact copy " and the Miros are far from being a replica like the 942's are of the 313oem wheel (exact replica)
By posting those pictures you just proved yourself wrong maybe it's time for A visit to your eye doctor.
Thin Y spoke breyton without much concave Vs thick Y spoke and very concave miro 111? They look completely different off and a car and on one even more so.

Nope. Find a rim they are a replica of and get back to me. Still don't see how anyone thinks they are reps of the breytons. I can name a million other rims that look just like the breytons too just go on tire rack and look how similar they all look to breytons are they all reps in your eyes?
Yea I would if it was lighter and good quality like the Miros are. They use the same manufacturing process and are lighter than the originals. Hate all you want but less money, better design and concavity and lighter? I think the choice is clear.
The wheel industry is in distress? Survival/prosperity of the fittest and free market is what this country is all about other brands wanna charge a premium for "name" without any actual benefit they can go screw themselves.

replica - "an exact reproduction"
Please show me one ******* wheel that the miro 111 is a replica of.
It's lighter more concave and has completely different spoke design.
It's not like they made a mold from a breyton gts and just resold them as their own. The wheel is based off one of the most common european spoke designs in history. The Y spoke. Go on tire rack and select BMW m5 and click wheels. Please tell me how many ******* Y spoke rims u find that look similar but aren't the exactly the same. Are these all replicas too?

Funny you say that because breyton uses the cheapest casting method available to make the gts's. Gravity cast wheels which both of them are can only be so strong to begin with what possible difference could their be to put a 500 dollar difference between them other than "name"
I clearly said they do make replicas, but the miro 111/935 is not one. They obviously designed the wheel differently maybe their mold of the breyton was just bad lol and it came out looking better than the original???
They obviously had to design the wheel in house if there is no other exact wheel on the market that it came from no?

these all must be breyton replicas too in your mind... ya know... with slight changes for copyright/trademark/patent reasons.

Every one of those wheels were designed in house by each individual company. Just because they look the same doesn't mean they are replicas. Because to be a replica... you must be EXACT. You claim miro changed the design of JUST the miro 111 to avoid legal issues when they sell TONS of EXACT replicas on the SAME MARKET. If miro wanted to make a replica of the breyton they would MAKE IT EXACTLY as it it. Your point makes no sense, because they sell tons of 100% replica wheels and don't get in any legal trouble for it.

hey guess what... heres your breyton rep you were looking for... sorry to tell you the MIRO 111 is not a replica. Just because your eyes are bad and you think they look the same doesn't mean they are a replica.
as i stated before, you are completely wrong...
an actual replica wheel:
BMW Staggered Wheels - B300 - 19"

it would be nice if you actually showed me a wheel the miro is a rep of... but you never have. So until you do... Stop spreading false information.

I had dpe's on my m5 for 3 years and with the new York roads it just wasn't happening. 2 Times a year I would be in for bubbled tire and bent rim. Switched to miros in stock size and haven't had a single problem since. It's not about budgets alone. We have the worst roads in the country.
