What size are they originally?

Which? The TS are OEM 17"

 

[maximus]

Proper OEMs are 17", the 16" are replicas

 

[Sabretooth tiger]

Why make replica's in 16?

 

[abmi0000]

Why make replica's in 16?

Its like 18" replica CSL's :idea:

Who knows. The demand probably justifies the wierd offering.

This one?! Good find! R12k is maybe a bit heavy though, but then again, as rare as hen's teeth!!! :thumbs:
