Why do MOST Linea Corse wheels just crack?

So i have seen many threads about these wheels just cracking, i mean i can understand road conditions and sometimes wheels do crack, but when most of your wheels crack in the same spot and is known for this wouldn't you think this is a manufacturer error/recall? I understand nothing is perfect , but how can you sit there and feel happy about selling wheels that will eventually crack 90% of the time? To me that's shady, bad business ethics , and would look into selling a better quality product . Now , i am not only going off just threads but in person as well, i have seen plenty with my own eyes .

Anyone care to discuss ? Personally, if i am paying for something i would expect a little bit better quality then that. What do you guys think? I have owned plenty of your regular aftermarket wheels and i have NEVER had this experience cracking wheels, i also have owned forged wheels as well .

I haven't seen any threads on this. Could be the crap roads. One of my heavy, durable stock rims is bent and I wouldn't be surprised if a few others are as well.

wow! many threads on crack LC? Man, if there are, you should collect them and post them here to inform the public. However, through personal experience (2 sets of LC), I haven't had any problem with them. I am still on the LC Leman right now and it's my DD. Bay area freeways are pretty bad and I've hit plenty of pot holes and haven't had any bent or crack wheels... Rock chips? yes, but you get that on all kind of wheels especially painted...

WOW OP you are making some comments that are really threatening to a company that has a remarkable reputation on here.

I know of one set that are cracked at the moment.

Then again I know of a few BBS sets that are cracked and bent so........ does this mean there is something wrong with the wheel?

I honestly dont think so, I just think some people live in areas where even the best of the best dont stand a chance against a monstrous pothole!

All I am saying is you are making some bold comments that can tarnish a great vendor on this sight!

If you have relevant threads you are speaking of, please post them up so we can read them.

I have LC's and they have def stood the test for me!
Thanks for bringing us incredible wheels at an affordable price Zoeb!


Thanks op.

I have not bent any of my wheels (LC dyna). I have had my wheels on for over a year now and with the Bay Area roads as shitty as they are, they have been fine for me! No issues with cracking either.
