i had the lowenhart lsr 22 inch with the double rolled inner barrels made just for the bentley gt with center bore for bentley which is rare ,they are the ones that bent realy bad im sure they are stronger than the original barrel , i flatend 2 of them like a egg on a small pothole , amazingly my finisher brought them back to life just like new perfectly straight so it seems like they are a easy repair once bent but they def bend like butter , if anyone needs a repair guy for bent 3 pc wheels , custom finish or resealing 3pc wheels contact me , thanks

Playing with the engineering curve is usually for the track. Am surprised you guys are doing this on lackluster roads(!). Just glad no one has totaled their Bentley due to inappropriate rim and tire choice.

wow!! those forgiatos look like they were made for the car!! so far my 22 vossen mono-blocks have been very durable, (i was surprised how well built they are when i recieved them) , even with rubber band tires. also, HRE's new p90 line up is very nice!! i love the ones on the ls600h you guys showcased

i have the 19-inch Mulliner style multi-piece and seems the rims have a slight problem as the main center is moving and rubbing against the outer lip piece. The 19-inch single piece chromed 5-spoke are fine.

Go 21s and keep them aired up. Forged rims only.
