Brabus Rims
 
Me Again....

I'm interested in getting a set of 17" or 18" Brabus Monoblock VI single piece aftermarket rims. Are Brabus rims strong? I live in Boston and lets just say they roads in some places are down right lethal!! [:@] I went through two sets of aftermarket rims in my last car and then I decided to get a set of factory forged rims. Other rim manufactures are welcomed... [sm=groupwave.gif]

Thanks

RE: Brabus Rims
 
After being in this business for 18 years I have not really seen one wheel any stronger than another. A forged wheel will be your strongets made product. Your cast wheels will all be about the same. Nothing is safe from a pot hole or curb. You just need to pay attention and be careful of how you drive. In 18 years I have only bent one wheel and I have thm on all of my cars, from 20inch to 18 inch. I bent one wheel one night during a down pour when I hit a huge hole. I knew the hole was there from driving down the same road everyday but could not locate it during one of these southern down pours. Brabus are expensive though, there are other manufactors that build just as strong and same quality for less.

Brabus wheels are VERY strong, they use them on the Ev12, the Monoblock v. Very nice wheels!

Brabus rims are made by RONAL.

Ronal also makes rims for VW and Audi.
