Wheel Drama - Every week one wheel bends...
I just want to put it out...
Every week one of my wheels bends (R17)... it really sucks!
I have even changed my tires from 225/45 to 225/50 and stills bending!!!
I don't want to go back to 16"... going bigger is the only way! lol.
why there are lot's of oem cars with 17" having no issues and I have every week?

I think I'm going sell my b5 and buy another piece of german engineering: A PANZER! lol
really, I quit with this rims... i'm going back to 16" , go to the store where I've bought it and try another set. I really can't be like this. every week I wake up at saturday and went to the wheel shop to unbend my wheels. EVERY WEEK! EVERY WEEK WITH A 50 PROFILE TIRE!
as a saying that we have here in brazil says "what is a fart for those who are already crapped". it can't get any worse, instead of being at the beaches enjoying the sunny rio and all of those good looking girls in bikinis... I spend my saturdays at the wheel shop waiting for the unbending.

if i've hitted something this weekend I wouldn't complain... I have not hit anything, i have not passed by a massive hole...
it was just smooth driving. I was driving and repeating my personal mantra "I wont bend any wheels, I won't bend any wheels I WON'T BEND ANY F**KING WHEELS!' and then... today "oh crap... I've bent one wheel!"

You don't need to go smaller, you just have obviously happened upon a rather weakly constructed wheel. I have always run aluminum wheels on my cars, my Firebird had 17" and 18" staggered one-off Corvette rims made by a reputable company, and I was running 40 and 45 profile tires, never once bent a wheel. That's odd, because I live in Michigan, which is known for horrible roads due to the fluctuating weather.
Find some better wheels, the ones you have aren't quality wheels if they bend without you hitting anything or abusing them at all.
