If you search, there is a thread on how the spokes crack during agressive driving. They probably should be ok for street only use, but avoid potholes as much as you can.

Is this something they resolved? I have been researching these rims on this site and haven't found that thread. I would love to know if I'm buying rims that are going to fail....and if Konig will replace them for free because their crap broke.

Had these rims for 2 1/2 half years of street driving in the greater Seattle area.(shitty streets). Never had a problem and they are perfect. The finish has held up even with winter driving.

i wouldn't get them and i'm typically on the side of manufacturers when i hear of a failure... i've simply heard of too many with these.

Of the 3 sets i've seen on cars locally around here. All of them had bends on the lips. Seems like they are just too soft from trying to be so light.
