Some people would rather spend 600 on wheels than 1600+. Some of us have real world responsibilities and mommy and daddy don't pay for our cars.

Hating on rep wheels when you run replica side skirts and lips? Nice.

Shots fired

I don't mind some good looking xxrs as some daily wheels. I just wouldn't track with them.

Oh you got me... Let me know how those XXR wheels hold up bro.

Mine held up fine for a year. And it's not much to show two pictures of broken XXR wheels. How many of them are sold per year compared to Wedssport, Work, Rays, etc?

What you're doing is basically saying no one should buy a civic because way more of those are wrecked every year compared to a Lamborghini.

Edit: that second picture looked like it happened in an accident. Any wheel could break in that situation.

@Antuono Any wheel can break. I can easily add pics of broken "name brand" wheels, but I wont.
@ZOMFGAARON thank you for keeping it civil. I don't need to see your car but I know it isn't stock with a body kit.
