Is 1500 Too Cheap For Some Rims?

[adam-__-]

If you're going to track your car (I assume you do that's why you care about weight), don't get those cheap, shit quality wheels from tempetyres and ozytyres or someshit I can't remember. You're only looking for trouble if you do.

does anyone know why these rims broke off ? are they just cheap or were they used incorrectly ?

Cheap and the actual design of the wheel is bad - I don't think that design is a copy of a Jap wheel.

It would be interesting to see if they had the correct load rating for those cars ???

from memory, appart from the fact they are shit cheap rims the hubs of the wheels developed cracks, most likley due to nuts being done up too tight and as a result the spokes broke away from the hub. These are the only types of wheels I have ever seen break like this though.....Majority of the wheels Tempe and others sell are good quality wheels. There not the same standard as rays/work/enki wheels but they are a whole different ballpark really, it's like comparing a ferrari to a commodore......

Rota in the uk make copies of rims, and i've seen a few pics of Rota's broken on the track.

Whilst being rare, you do run the greater chance of something braking when it comes to these cheaper rims.

But yeah, as said, if you're not tracking the car, prob doesn't matter too much.

I've got some AVS (advan=top jap quality) rims with good tyres going if you're interested
