PSA: Pumaspeed TrackLite (Fake Rays)

[dhminer]

Throwing this up here in case any of y’all are like me and almost fooled into buying Pumaspeed TrackLite wheels because they appear to be Rays gram lights for an absurdly low price. Well, they are not. I reached out to Rays directly. Below is their reply. Duh..


“Thank you for your email.

These wheels are not produced by Rays.

While the markings are very similar, the text actually says RAVS, not RAYS.”

Had two sets of these in the past, they’re made by a company called Calibre:

Even though they’re not genuine rays, they're still pretty good wheels in their own right!

That’s actually not bad. 530kg load rating is up there with konig and others

They don't say Rays anywhere on the page, they're clearly copies of Rays wheels but I'm not sure how you would have thought they were genuine Rays.

Here’s how…

Much the same way that the Ali Express sold faux/counterfeit Rays Duralumin lug nuts look really close (even the packaging), but are deceptive fakes (for about a tenth the co$t of the real thing).
