History of rims:
I bought them looking for a rim with only 4 lugs instead of a universal 8 lug pattern (I think it looks cleaner). I also knew I wanted an 8 spoke rim.
I have had these rims for 3 or so years now. I recently had the front 2 rims redone (rockchips and such from daily driving). I had never hit a curb or anything with these rims until I lost control on a wintry freezing cold night last december... going about 80 on a turn with no tread on rear tires...yeah I'm an idiot I know... anyways I hit the curb doing almost 60 with the steering wheel cut all the way to the right so I'm lucky not more damage was done (and I didn't wreck the car).
The other 3 rims are in perfect shape - they just need a recoating of something from daily driving wear and tear.
There is a local guy in memphis that does powdercoating (http://www.rickspowdercoating.com/)for a decent price.
Here's some pics of the rims on the fast car and the rim damage...
