Japz Rims vs Taiwan Rims Durability. Comments plz!

[k3nny]

My experience with BSA is consistent with that of ninja_iga's.

Very good rims.. although a tad on the heavy side but nevertheless, quality rims.

I've got 215/35/17's on my a set of BSA 17' rims and they have yet to deform/crack/bend etc considering the fact that its my mother's car and she goes into everything.. Ive got nothing but praises for BSA.

BSA motorsports team, i wonder if they use their BSA rims ? if yes which model ? should be light & strong

yes they do actually
quite strong!
Jimmy Low actually raced to the finish (MSS) with one exploded tire, and literally ran on the rim only! (rear?)

still managed 3rd from leading earlier, but disqualified cos car was fit..

oh well, maybe earlier batches were bad, but current ones are pretty good. BSA's main market is export (80%) so they can't screw up. That's why their quality improves.

JRD? spoon-fed by the local market, so they wont improve that much. Spoilt brat.
entire batches were rejected!

Actually it's more or less the same unless u're comparing its weight la....

U're not goin for rally races rite? U won get tat 'type' of impact so often la..

BSA is already good... the quality is much better than JRD.. before this im using JRD, hit bumpy road already crack and have hole summore.. sterring also goyang..

Go to h/cut to buy japz rim but expensive.. lastly go to klang and buy new Taiwan rim set.. very light but strong.. already 1 year but still no dent.. save money summore as my old dent rim can trade in...

neber hear abt road car rims burst. However, I hear that magnesium wheel can burn uncontrolably in even of serious accident. Last time F1 race car used them.

Any bady can verify this ar?

when i go to falken.. i saw they sell rims under thier brand 'falken'. please give comments on this rims. is it oke? whats the story behind the rims? thanks.

it not the rim
it tyre do count as well

you can buy cheapo JRD rim
but try to fit it with super high profile
i want to see how it kemek

some people buy rim but used it with low profile tyre like
205 x 40 x 17, 195 x 50 x 15 so on
the tyre is too thin to support and protect the rim

Maybe slightly off topic, but is there a shop or showroom where I can find the full range of BSA rims??

go to klang la geng.. many types of irressitable rim you can buy.. my opinion better buy new rim..
