The glorious condition of our roads caused these bends...I have seen many bent wheels from all makes and manufactures through out my automotive career. I, too, am running cup wheels on my '87 944S na have had 3 straightened and a 4th in need. It does not take much...the parting strip at a bridge to highway to create the PITA. Is the look worth the price of admission? Yes...my two cents worth...Rob

So what do you think caused them to bend?
The roads around where I live are not very good at all for a lowered S2 with stiffer than stock suspension, but my rims are still reasonably true. One of the front rims isn't perfect, but last time it was checked when new tyres went on, not out of round enough to justify fixing -- at least not yet. Certainly no noticable vibration, etc...

I also had a set of early offset cup II replicas that I put on the car straight and took off all four bent. It cost more to get them repaired than they were worth. Lesson learned.
