Default Anyone running 225/40 on their 18's?? Just trashed my 2nd wheel!!

I am now running 215/35 18's. Even being extremely careful, I still ruined my 2nd rim. I want to go up to 225/40's but I wonder if anyone else has? If you have, let me know if there any major problems. I know I should get 17's, but I rather stay BIG.

i dunno about 225/40's thats sounds pretty big, i too have 215/35's on my 18's, no offense but you might just want to look into getting some quality rims, my guess is that u have knock off or imitation rims, same thing happened to 2 of my friends with lesser quality wheels, my tsw's have held up for a year and a half now and they have taken a hellafied beating, made strong though, later
