You get for what you pay for with these wheels. I just ordered a replacement wheel. At $128 shipped i'm not complaining though.

But I'm gonna be getting a new set of wheels soon, its a matter of time until another one cracks

I'm getting really nervous with these wheels, mostly about the paint but now about them cracking too.

At the price I paid, if I can get at least two years out of them I'll be happy. If the paint goes maybe they will get converted to winter wheels, idk.

Was it powder coated?

Nope, factory gold. I've had them for about 4-5 months now. Just daily driven and the roads where I live aren't too bad and never hit a pothole so bad that i panicked afterwards

I'd be worried if the wheels were maybe $250-$300 a wheel, but for $130ish a wheel...it's easily replaced. My only concern would be the wait. I had to wait a long while for mine to come in for some reason.

Doesn't look like there's much of a sidewall on your tire. What size is it?

I would definitely want a decent sidewall to protect any aftermarket rim.

Yeah that's why I don't mind for for the meantime, but if each wheel is like this it comes to a point where its just not worth it anymore.

I had the same 17x8.25 xxr527 on my previous car with 195/40 Yokohama s drive tires and dd them for about a year or so and no cracks or bends .

It maybe the bad batch ? No?


You're using the achilles ATR sports right ? How do you like them ?
I'm using the same tires , I'm pretty surprised on how they handles the road and the rain

I love the ATR sports! They're damn good tires, I don't see myself using anything else anytime soon

I bought from NLMotoring.com, but I bought it from their eBay store. It ended up being about $70 cheaper after shipping from eBay. They were shipped very quickly and packaged good
