i read in an earlier post you had the Ronal R-28s on your car. What do you think of them? Are they good rims? I was planning on buying the R-39's or RTs

I like the R28s but three of them are bent......

one is bent badly and loses about 2 psi of tire pressure per week. I don't know whether these wheels bend more easily than other brands, but I haven't hit any extraordinarily large potholes. I really like how the wheels look on my car. I don't like that they weigh 28 lbs or so.... they are too heavy in my book, but I bought them before I knew to consider unsprung weight for performance. If I had it to do all over again, I would not buy the Ronal wheels. I would buy a stronger and more lightweight wheel.
