Re: superball knock offs
The outside lip is quite different. But word on the street is they use the same molds. Just don't bevel the lip. But I dunno if that's a fact.

Re: superball knock offs
With the exception of the outer and maybe inner they look exactly the same. They're not the only ones either.
