The RH wheels tend to bend & crack on the inner barrell quite easily compared with other 3 piece wheels.

That said, it depends on the price you are getting them for - they are great looking wheels. I recently had a set sold out from under me that were a good deal.

i've had a set on my car for the last half a year at least...bought them in used but perfect condition. no issues and i've hit some potholes, but nothing that made me cringe. nj roads are pretty poor.

i didn't hear anything about them going out of business. nurburger, any links?

I read it on another forum recently, but their website doesn't give the impression of them being OOB...

Sorry for the false info!

Get with Jim Dorociak. He is a member here and is a wiz when it comes to those wheels (and a great guy). He is very helpful!
