lol the "real" and "fake" wheel debate is so gay as far as whether they will break like that...

Simple mold casting will usually break like the picture about. Spin casting is a **** load stronger (most good Enkei wheels) and can sustain more abuse. Forged wheels, usually heavier, are stronger due to them being a solid block of material and hydraulically pressed into shape. These wheels will usually bend and can be fixed...

But "real" wheels...jdm tight yo.... super duper European, whatever... all will want to crack if they are casted... And all fake wheels will have a tendency to bend if they are forged... its how it goes.

We can't all afford HRE's at 1600$ a rim. My price range is about 300$-500$ a wheel. Does that mean I'm buying Cheap ****? IDK but I hope not.
