true, although that's only on the newer models and replica wheels.

the older style ones (like the one i posted) are fine.

Clearly not fine though if that's the sort of damage that happens from hitting a kerb at walking pace.

I skelpt a Sparco wheel off a kerb at over 10mph in my MR2, hit the kerb side-on and it put a tiny ding in the wheel.

I hit a breeze block on the M1 in my first Corsa B. had 17" Team Dynamics on with 205/45's.

Ripped fuck out of tyre, rim had a tiny crack that made it leak air. But to say I hit breeze block at 70mph it held up well

Nice, i would say you could eat your dinner off that, but it would be quite awkward

If you position it well enough, you could probably eat pizza off it.

Or you probably can't Jim, can imagine you are the type of guy that eats pizza with a fork and knife.
