never had issues with my vmr's on my a3 back in the day, one thing i can say is when i bought another set for my a4 the finish was horrible, had them on the car for one day and the finish was pretty much done. anyways sorry to hear about the bent rims, hope everything works out, like most guys have said here, pay a bit more for alot more quality. do it right

just on a quick note, ive personaly have been in the wheel industry a very, very long time and have seen good wheels and bad wheels yes some in between and with our name on the line on a personal side not by company, VMR's are a good quality wheel, you have to see how many years they have been retailing their wheels for, your talking about hundreds of wheels out in the roads. it douse suck that your wheels bent, but i do think is very good on VMR's part to offer half off. and not to bash any company whats so ever but if your next options are from wheel companies you listed then youre way better off getting VMR's, they have a longer history then the other lines you mention. either way Good luck and hope everything turns out in a positive way for both sides.

Berk Technology actually used their wheels at a couple of track events and didn't have any issues!

V701's to be exact!

have had 2 sets of VMRs already and to me it was pretty decent in quality and strong. ofcourse i think it may not be as much quality as the big brands out there but for the price i'm paying, i'm ok with it. and i can just change to a different set if something does happen

My 19" VB3's have held up great on a lowered suspension, Ive hit some nasty stuff driving to the city and have actually pulled over to make sure a spoke wasn't disconnected. I have had no issues and get complimented on the wheels all the time
