Oh, now we find out that he bent the fucking control arm. That's not a "minor" incident with a guardrail. OF COURSE the wheel broke if it got hit hard enough to bend the LCA. Those things aren't flimsy...

Yes they are, it only takes hitting it at the right angle. My friend hit a curb powered through shaving his xxr wheels pretty good, bent the LCA, and the wheel although beat up was fine. Swapped LCA and drove it home that night.

Yes marshall did wall ride , The wheels never hit the wall the hard( if at all) rear end of his car took all the damage.

I'm not saying this to defend rota/xxr/ or work, but people gotta stop making up excuses to flaunt their brand loyalty. A wheel is a wheel, hit it hard enough in the right spot it'll fucking break. I've seen almost any OEM (omgtehbest) wheel destroyed in any sort of way. There is no exception for work or any other wheel company.

If you hit somehting hard enough to bend the LCA you deserve to break the wheel. PERIOD... Who the fuck cares if an XXR somehow miraculously survived. The XXR probably weighed twice as much and hit at a different angle. I bet you that wheel was bent up to hell and not safe to drive on anyways. That Work DID NOT break like a Rota or any other wheel. It broke like a wheel that got rammed into a K-rail. That's COMPLETELY different...

Tasteless dumbfucks need to stop trying to justify their cheap-ass wheel purchases with retarded threads, heresay, and mis-information. There are a lot of reasons to buy a quality wheel rather than a cheap-o POS, none of those reasons are related to surviving a hit with a k-rail.

TRUTH!!!!
IF you're ok being a cheap-ass, more power to ya, but quit trying to pass it off as legit just because xxr makes round wheels and so does work.
