a good question! how the fuck do they rust?? what metals are alloys made from? I thought they were a stainless/alumin mix but obviously not if they rust. | |

XTC113 has just got some BK rims on his car, im pretty sure they are the 240s too. Might be worth asking his opinion, but he hasnt had them long either. | |

how the fuck do allys rust, can someone explin this to me please, they might oxidise causing the paint to bubble but this shouldnt happen for years, even on the cheap crap ones. my dad had bk alloys on his bm for 4 years and they were perfect, no defects or anything. | |
