795M wheels and potholes

JDUNITNOW · 06-13-2020, 10:43 PM

Anyone have this wheel and experience potholes? How well have they held up under bad roads in your area and do you worry with such a low profile tire? This is my biggest concern with spending 3k on wheels and knick them or worse, bend a rim. I know its a forged wheel but they bend also.

Where'd you find them for $3k? Is that with tires?

Got it, was hoping it was with tires and then I'd definitely purchase them. Thanks!

Honestly this is why I'm considering buying the OEM concept ones. That way if they do bend/break from potholes I'm not out $4k.

I've had forged wheels before and they held up nicely but I would intentionally avoid certain roads and was always stressing about curbing etc. The replicas seems to have good reviews on here too. Food for thought

I'm thinking the same as you. At least I will not be out of a ton of money, hell I might order two sets.
