So will Sterns really crack?
Stern's wheels look 100% identical to Volks. They have replicas of both SF Challenge and SF Winning. They look the same, they weigh the same. The only difference is that the Volks (fixed) cost 3 times as much. That and they're not forged. But do I give care? I mean, are Sterns really gonna crack? My car's getting lowered next week and the body kit is going on in a few months. I'm not exactly gonna be flying over potholes.

the post seems to say that Sterns are more money (3x) and may be less sturdy? Is this what you ment to say or are they less money?

I'm sorry but have you read a damn thing on this forum since you became a member.....go search the wheels thread and you'll see that stern's will hold up fine to daily driving and normal potholes (but they are 3x less the price and 3x less the quality). If you track forget them they weigh a ton.
EDIT: just re-read your post....i hope you were drinkin'

19 inch volks should weigh in around 24 - 25lbs. The TE's and LE's should weigh in around 20 - 21lbs. sterns are 30lbs+. Why on earth would somebody ever compare volks to sterns. its a insult to us volk owners. And its just not a weight issue. they are forged wheels. I bet you have never seen how rays makes these wheels. dam, the lack of knowledge people have these days and they talk like they know something.
