C300 Rim Damage
I've been having some issues with my rims. I had one tire that needed to be replaced, because the rim was cracked and I've had two rims that needed to be straightened out, because they were bent. I'm having this problem again, which leads me to question the overall quality of the rims. I do live in an area where the roads contain a lot of potholes from previous winters, but I've never had this problem before with any of my other vehicles. What could be the overall problem??

Are they stock rims or aftermarket?? Rims don't just bend themselves and they usually take some kind of impact to bend. If your having rims bend and crack then Im guessing your impacting them somehow.

Stock rims. I live in an area with a lot of road damage and pot holes, resulting from this past winter. That is the only real explanation that I can come up with concerning this constant damage .. and I have no warranty on my tires. What should I do about this issue, since it keeps happening, especially with having no tire warranty?

Right. I'll be looking into taking the train to work. City streets are awful ... thank you!
