Only trouble with light race wheels on the streets. A bit like the BMW car wheels that crack.

Dont know what to suggest really. I still have some catching up but plenty of plans. How about titanium bits or magnesium covers.

Walpole you've over looked a STM wheel plug for the off side, that will finish off that side and I think that hyper wheels would be the "dog's".

i think you find getting a good wheel such as BST would not have that prob 'in fact they as much stronger than cast or mag wheels .mind if hit the pot holes you are asking for probs
