Ugh...posts like this are why I never visit the MkIV forum. I guess it's back to the Technical forums for me

Cheap "rimz" are soft. You'll pay less now so you can pay more later. Either to get them straightened or to buy new when you bend them.

So its better to have a hard rim so when you hit something the rim cracks instead of bending? I would rather have a rim that bends so it does not lose its bead when I smack something.

You're right...I'm headed out right now to take off those silly forged wheels. I don't know what I was thinking when I bought those.

You kids should do a little homework on something called understeer.
I'm guessing you guys also think lowering your car makes it handle better....am I right??

Some folks don't have "unlimited" bank accounts to spend on expensive wheels. inexpensive wheels will get the look you want for not much cash. If someone wants cheaper wheels don't flame them! I have TSW (Too Soft Wheels) and I love them to death. I have hit a few potholes hard that I couldn't avoid, and have not had any problems with bending or cracking. To each their own.
Buy whatever wheels you want, and don't let people flame you about it!
That is all........
