Need HELP concerning Soft/Bad Stock 17" Wheels

[Anthony76]

Hi Guys,

I Bought 2 Audis in Mai of 2001.

I have 17" Wheels (not the S4 Ones) They are the same as the 16" ones but are 17"(9 Spoke) They came as a special at the end of the 2001 models. (1400$US option)

5 out of 10 Mags are Bent (2 cars + 2 Spares)
1 Blow out Tire
4 Messed up Tires (with bumps on the side walls)
They are Pirrelli P6000 Tires.

I want to know if anybody else has add similar problems....
my assumption is the wheels are too big for the car or just plain too cheap and soft.

Almost all stock rims bend, they do not like pot holes.See bent rims every day on these junks!!!!
