Have had this BMW 550I for about 2 years, and in that time I've had 3 bent wheels and one cracked wheel. I have cars with similar, aluminum alloy rims and lower profile tires on them - and have not bent or cracked a wheel on the other cars. The rear wheel cracked, but it was along the inner edge - and was not noticed. The only reason it was checked was because the tire kept leaking air. Luckily it was caught before the wheel cracked even more (it cracked for about 1" long from the rim edge to just past the tire bead). Updated 12/02/10 updated 12/07/10
