To answer above, mine are 20's
As far as quality, they are great! Now They do a few scratches (to be expected when being stupid with a wheel cleaning brush :/)
And as far as the bend/crack. They will bend instead of crack so that's a plus, BUT it is hard to do so. I have a slight dent in the edge of my Front right tire. But that was from when I got run off the road and hit a curb. I thought there would have been more damage. No air leaks from this either. They are in my shed right now being winter and all. If I feel adventurous later to remove the 3+ feet of snow there that we have gotten in the last week I'll go and take a pic of it.

I didn't literally mean that these rims are POS, they are good. Not the best but as far as "affordable" wheels go I'd think they are are some of the most respectable. But the set that I had began peel clear coat, but only in spots, not in a pattern like volks do when you use wheel cleaner. It is almost like the clear coat did't seal properly to the metal

I think It's time I for one stopped confusing my self with choises, and just got some of these
.....if ANYONE knows where I can get these in OZ (WA) I'd LOVE to know...otherwise I'm adding shipping + import tax onto an other wise cheap purchase

Yeah, they aren't high end like work or low end like the Sears and Town Fair Tire junk (Z Racing). They, to me, are more of the higher middle area. Maybe a 4/5

I got ambitious today and plowed out my shed and took a pic of the dent from my rim.
Keep in mind this is from bring ran off the road and hitting a curb at about 40mph
