Wheel and Tire questions

Are XXRs not good? I've been trying to research about them and they seem pretty good but on here it seems like everyone thinks bad about them? What's wrong with them will they brake or bend? Or are they just a little on the heavy side?

JWL Certification - Japan Light Alloy Wheel (JWL) standard is a certification level instituted by the Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport which requires that alloy wheels being purchased in Japan, must have the JWL mark on them thus showing the alloy wheels to have passed through a rigorous self-certification process.
VIA Certification - Vehicle Inspection Association (VIA) is a third-party group in Japan which can test and verify whether or not any alloy wheels can meet up to the JWL certification tests.
TUV Certification - Technischer Uberwachungs-Verien (TUV) translates to Technical Examination Association in Germany. This is another third-party testing group which began in Germany and now has locations worldwide. The TUV Certification is the highest performance and durability standard any product can hope to meet. To even be considered for testing, all companies must first be ISO 9001:2000.
That said inexpensive wheels take shortcuts on painting and finishing. After several seasons (winter for sure) the finish will be faded, discolored or corroded.
