In theory light rim has less density, does that mean more chance to damage?

I going to buy TE37.

 

Um, those can be sensitive.......what size are you planning on low pro tires? If so are the roads crappy? If so do you still have your stocks to put on when you go over those crappy roads?

 

i dented my mugen mf-8s on a huge ditch one time....cost about 80 bucks to be fixed.

 

I'll put 205/45-16

 

How sensentive are those? B/c they say that forged wheels are stronger and lighter then cast ones. I hope the lighter ones aren't weaker, and once I get enough money I'll be buying them.

 

Density is not the same as strength. There are things out there that are not dense at all, and yet are very strong.

I don't know if that applies to your wheels, but just fyi

I agree with Lsos. But if you're the kinda' guy that runs into a ditch or curb every
next Friday, than I'd stick with steelies anyway. "Spun-forged" offers, (recollecting
here), supposedly the best/strongest/lightest weight combination. I had some
Volk TE-37's, (I think they're classified as spun-forged, (SSR),) and they were
very nice, in a robust way; light as **** too....
