That doesn't look like a bulletproof wheel to me. Pretty obvious that design places a high priority on the mechanical properties of the construction materials of those spokes. You can put that lightweight stuff into an airplane but you'd better have the level of material specs, certifications and maintenance customary for that application. To me such extremes only have a place in the most highly engineered and controlled competiton machines. Such nonsence for the street is not just a waste of money; it is stupid. Stupidity is definitely not cool.

I have a 1999 Saab 9-3. So far I have been able to service all problems myself. I buy on line parts but only if I cannot get them from my local autoparts store. I do not like going to the Saab dealer as they are generally 2-3 times the cost. There are a few Saab specific on line stores that I am comfortable with. So far I have not had any issues with part I purchased via the web. I hope my good luck continues

Yes we buy a lot of auto parts online. You must know your sources. Buying repaired alloy rims is an unacceptable risk unless from (again) a known source.

Only a fool would buy used parts on line. Only a total idiot would buy any safety related, used item on line.

You are a porsche owner and buy used parts...........

High performance comes with a price.......wannabe.

I buy parts online, electric switches, window regulators, items like that, do the work myself. But when the comes down to important items like that. NO, never that foolish.

Bullet proof????....what the h#ll is that, sounds like youn head is up your as$

I do buy parts online. I almost never buy used parts, and when I do I go to the junkyard and pull them myself. I would never buy used parts online.

I can't promise the same experience, but I've bought quite a few things from these guys. Best prices I've found, parts are correct and here in a couple of days. My experience with them is good enough that I'm not nervous about sharing.
