How can he advertise them as Simmons wheels when they aren't? Do they come with Simmons centre caps?

the wheels you want arnt simmons copies, but fr19 look alikes (not that they even look similar)
There is a thread on this site about Tempe Tyres and Simmons with all the information about the rims being made (which will be no different to how they were being made)
