Any info/review of Square wheels please?!

I'm looking at picking up a set of Square G6s for my S14. Can't beat the price for the size and offset, but I haven't really heard anything about them, good or bad. Is anyone here running them? How do they hold up? Are they prone to cracking or bending? I don't figure I can expect much of them given the price, but I just wanted to see if anyone here has had any problems with them before I spend the money.


Mods, if this is in the wrong place I apologize. Just thought this would be a good place to start.

my friend had a set on his 13, drifted on them for a couple of months, then sold them. he didnt have any problems with cracking or bending and for the price you can get them for, you can just get a whole new set as spares.

Yeah that's true. They're gonna be on my daily though. Doing a five lug swap and I'm just looking for something durable and affordable until I can get something better.

I've seen them in person and even thought they are cheap and I'm sure they will roll just fine they do indeed look cheap, as fuck.

They invented the circular wheel for a reason; because it can roll. You wont be going anywhere with shitty square wheels.

your typical cheap cast wheels. I'd imagine they'd be a lot like XXR wheels

GF has them on her daily drifter and likes them a lot, super easy to maintain they take abuse pretty good ( I put the car into a wall at 50 and zero damage to the wheel ), they take very little weight to balance them out and stretching tires on them is not any harder then doing a conventional rim.

All I got to say is, when you want to resell them think about the depreciation value for them. Lets say half, then any damage and so on. So they are worth $400-$450 new don't try to sell them for $350 that's all. I mean you could,but then you are the reason an s13 radio trim is 6 bajillion dollars.
