If I'm just an idiot, I apologize. This forum app won't me zoom in on pics. But is it just me, or have I seen like a dozen people running Ferrari wheels lately? Is it just for the love of irony or what?

 

HAHAH

your prob seeing AEV pintlers...

 

Haha...I always think that too when I see these. The Yellow center does make them look like Ferrari wheels...but Nope. Just AEV wheels like Jksteeve said.

 

Haha! That's pretty funny. I was wondering...

 

they do look good though

 

I thought that too until I got a set and they are too fragile for off roading.

 

What makes you say this?

 

just google "aev pintler cracked rim"

plenty of reports of busted rims...over and over and over again. cheap crap from china.

 

cause I have them lol. they are not designed to be run in the rocks. The rim lip is very thin and sticks out and catches easily. I am careful about taking good lines and wheeled many hours with stock rims and Raceline rims without any rock rash. First day off road with the Pintlers every rim had rash, they chip off chunks very easily. No cracks or broken beads yet but I worry about. I think for some types off offroading they would be fine but they do not like rocks. I liked how they looked on the day I got them tho.

 

Bummer. They're great looking wheels
