Aftermarket wheels.

Im looking into aftermarket wheels but after a previous experience on 20's constantly bending even on medium potholes.

So i'm looking at 3 piece forged wheels and were told they are prone to bending too, even if they are forged,since they are 3 piece.

Can anyone help me with what wheels will be resistant to potholes? or are 20's going to bend regardless?

Any wheels will bend... honestly, depending how hard you hit that hole. Best you can do is to avoid it. I'd had my ssr wheels for long time now... (like over 5 years) and they're still like new. Should look into them... SSR Wheels ... or other big brands will do.

I've managed to bend the OEM 19s, can't really blame the 20's. You just need to be real careful

Yeah ... honestly, no wheels are safe from any pot holes. Even name brand ones... Just drive careful and keep your eye on the road. Dodge if you must.
