i have a chance to get a set of oz sl's the original gunmetal ones from my friend but was wondering if these would be ideal for daily driving? i drive 60+ miles a day on not the greatest roads (california) Ive heard these bend and crack easily. Or should i keep looking for other rims? i need tires really bad for my stocks, but rather just get rims.

they have been known to crack along one of the spokes on the gunmetal ones. i believe OWK posted about this a while ago. if it didnt crack already though im sure theyll be ok, just inspect the wheels really well

STFA for more on that. Haven't heard anything about cracks on the 17's in anthracite. I've had the 17's on my car for almost 4 years now and no issues. I did hit a MASSIVE pothole in Detroit and have a small bend, but nothing that effects balancing. The reason I went with the SL's is the durability for the lightweight. I've also put them through track duty w/o issues.

do they need to be really strong ones to survive all the pot-holes, or do you just avoid every single pot hole with 100% accuracy?

Are there a few brands that are stronger than others?

I'm running 'em now. As those have said below, it's the anthracite that have the structural problems

Is that Bronze color available from OZ or is that the custom paint?
