Erm..no its not. Some will flex, buckle , kerb, scuff easier than others.

And being a owner of Fox, Momo, Arospeeds, Speedline and Kahn's i can honestly say Fox are shite wheels, If not the shitest that iv owned anyway.

Its nothing to do with the design, I like the design and its a shame that the shit companys come up with the good design's, I just dont like square wheels and wouldnt waste my money , Even if they were £50 i honestly wouldnt buy them.

All of the above is my own opinion and does not represent the views or thoughts of Corsasport.co.uk, Its owners, share holders and members or subscribers.

i hit a curb with my st 17's at 30mph, only had a slight curb mark.

on my old wolfrace wheels, they would've had a huge chunk taken out of them at 30mph.

I buckled my original Vauxhall alloys, replaced with the BBS ones and driven on the same roads for more miles and they're fine.

Not the most scientific test, but they do appear tougher.

so if i had 17 with budgets id be ok, i better change back to standard then.

Stop kidding yourself timberland

ian im not argueing that the wheels are stronger and weeker, i know that wheels are stronger than others, but at the end of the day i havent ever struck a kurb or damaged an alloy wheel in any way.

aslong as i drive carefully as i have for the last 4 years ill be fine....thats my point.

Your the one kidding yourself wee baws.

17's with budgets are still going to be as dangerous as 18's hence the name budget, The point is your saying you just wont hit a kerb. Erm..ok...Im not going to insure my car and just not crash.

At the end of the day , Its only a forum and open minds coming together to put down opinions, My opinion is your wheels are shite.
