I've been considering going 18" but Eglinton, for instance, is so poor that I'm sure I'd damage the rims in no time.

View Full Version : Anyone actually using 18" rims around T.O.? Any problems with the poor roads? CanuckAudi 08-23-2002, 09:12 AM I've been considering going 18" but Eglinton, for instance, is so poor that I'm sure I'd damage the rims in no time. YS4 08-23-2002, 09:21 AM I had the same concern about the Toronto roads. So got got the strongest wheels that I could find.. They don't come must stronger (or more expensive) then these 2-piece bad boys. I also considered the OZ Superleggeras but at the time, they were not available in polished silver. But no problems so far... I did bend one of my stock Avus wheels (17") last winter.. I just swapped it with the spare... sans-audi 08-23-2002, 09:33 AM Was it the kind of situation where any wheel would have bent? Curious because I don't hear of people bending the Avus wheels a whole lot. Watch out for Kingston Road / Highway 2 right now, construction around Pickering/Ajax or so - NASTY huge raised sewer grates about 3" high that look ready to eat some alloys. No signs on them either, just have to look for them. YS4 08-23-2002, 09:54 AM I knew right away there must've been damage... the next day, it was filled in.It wasn't bent in half but it was slightly warped.. and yes, I am aware of that situation on Kingston rd. man they work slow... sans-audi 08-23-2002, 12:08 PM I love how the once purely-informational "bump" symbol is now the "oh ****" sign.

Stasis maybe? The gap makes the 18"'s look puny. <img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/26538/mys41.jpg"> |
