it's always a possiblility on bad roads.. also.. w/ potholes.. if you get too low profile of rims you might bend em in a big hole...

Everyone has to deal with the possibility of bending or knicking wheels. If you want to get some chrome don't let that stop you.

Not so much lowered but pot holes are a &^%$. My roads suck bad. I did not go with 18's I went with 17's just to give me a little more rubber on the road. You will find yourself slowing down a bit more for those bad roads.
