Default Look Corvettes are not the only cars that bend wheels....

So just getting sick of the bent wheel threads so thought I would show you guys what people who pay 3-4 times what we pay for our cars experience...

By the way keep in mind that these cars sell in the tens to hundreds of units a year not thousands like the Corvette.

Lambo - thread from 2008
Ferrari - "thanks to a pot hole.."
McLaren - "I hit a huge bump on the road..."

Not exactly what we're talking about with the Corvette wheels.

I think what OP means is you bought a cheap car, expect cheap wheels. I mean why else compare it to cars 2-3x more?

Here let me explain it slowly for you.....even very expensive cars bend and break wheels. It happens all the time. If you don;t want to bend/break wheels don't get a car with low profile tires. See so simple.
