I have had my Subzeros since January 04 and they are great. Even blew two tires on a massive pothole that I didn't see and the rims were not bent or anything...Can't complain in the least....

If you're also considering tires, look at the Nitto neogen. www.neogentire.com
I have quite a few miles racked up and they are wearing even and grip great... they are also rated for all season! I sold my stockers after realizing how great they handled in the rain (and snow, though I never hit deep snow with them).
Anyway.... check out subydude for your wheels... peace out!

mt buddy has had a set of black slipstreams on his civic for about 18 months and those same wheels were on my se-r for about 6 months. after 2 years, they have no scratches or peeling whatsoever. no bends from potholes or anything. i have gold formels on my WRX and they are cool, too
I've had my SDR's for over a year and have taken them off track three times. They have held up great. I got some nicks from going off track, but other than that no problems!

if i remember correctly the problem with paint peeling was earlier, possibly when they first came out, but Subydude was on top of things with replacements and customer service.
I think everything has been fixed for quite a while now.
I plan on getting some Rotas in the near future.
