Default Re: Strength of Rims

A word of advice, if anyone is considering buying new wheels, don't get cheap. If I'm not mistaken, there are currently no regulations regarding the strength of wheels. So if you pay $100 a wheel, don't expect them to last very long. Oh, and beware of knock-offs. My step-dad works for BBS and they are constantly disputing with a Chinese company making wheels with a "BB5" logo. And it is not just BBS. OZ, HRE..... all are being copied with cheap materials and abhorrent workmanship.
