If got a bit more budget then can think of used original Japan rims.
If got deep pockets, then go for new forged ultra light Japan rims!
But like many said above, even original ones also can still crack or dent. It all depends on how you use them.
Ori & Fake Rims Discussion here., Would like to know more on your budget.

Fake is still ok for those with less budget, especially those made in Taiwan. I've used fake Taiwan rims for >10yrs before and none of them got cracked or dented or imbalanced, and I was using them in Jakarta where the roads are even much worse than here!

QUOTE(kimsim @ May 2 2013, 11:05 PM) Yeah especially those rally wheels! But they're a bit heavier than Japan rims.I'm now using Japan forged rims and pretty happy with it. Weigh only about 6kg for 17x7.5 (fr), and 7kg for 17x8.5 (rr), so pretty lightweight. |

QUOTE(kimsim @ May 2 2013, 11:26 PM) if compare to mine OZ Crono hit 17x7jj for each piece is 8.2kg, but feels really solid cast and worry free for my ride too For your Sentra, I suggest not to go more than 16'. But your fake Enkei now already good enough la, looks nice already what.if got chance i am still will consider for enkei all two 17x7jj at 6.5kg each. |
