They went bankrupt and sold all their tooling... Unless you know something I don't?

Anyone running the Oz Allethingies? One post on 6speed saying they are weak and easy to bend but not sure if thats what others are finding. They do seem kinda light for a non forged wheel to also be strong but maybe they have a way around that with their process - or maybe not?

I have the Oz's with no issues. They're so cheap you can replace them easily. The problem is they're almost permanently back ordered.

Talks were with a local distributor for PPI (they used Dymags on some of their cars). The guy was just full of hot air. I was sad to find out that they went bankrupt after I decided to contact them directly.

I tried to get sponsorship for HRE CFs as well; but they stopped making them. I assume because Dymag manufactured the majority of the wheel.

The guys at CCW have been very informative. They are heavier than I expected though.

So close on a decision, yet so far.

Everyone here has been very helpful though!
