Cobra replica knock offs

I shouldn't be ignorant of knockoffs having owned two old Corvettes with knockoffs over 25 years. But I am as far as the Cobra world goes so I need some education. It appears there are three different patterns of repro type wheels/drives available - real knockoff/pin drive with no adaptors - knockoffs with adaptors (like Corvettes) - and bolt on replicas. Is this basically correct? I think some confusion comes from references to 6 pin and 5 pin drives. Are the 5-pin drives the knockoff type adaptors and real pin drives were 6-pin. Is any of this correct?

Also any favorites amongst the manufacturers (Trigo, Vintage, etc). Provided I understand this halfway I'm probably leaning towards the Corvette type wheels with adaptors rather than go to the expense of real pin drive supsension parts. I'm pretty comfortable with them.

Any comments and suggestions are appreciated.

Dan
