Slenfe, you're the second one to tell me about the rims. I've always avoided pot holes but it looks like if I hit one by accident, the wheel won't be so forgiving!
I think it's a matter of luck to be frank, when I got mine they were already bent, after many month I had BMW replacing them, that been said this is not BMW issue only rather more the nature of lower profile tires, with 35 or 40 wheels have higher chances to hit the hole hint a risk of bent.

don't let this discourage you as I am sure you can manage by developing an eye for potholes like many of us, nevertheless my point was more to make you aware of the issue while shopping and avoid a car with a existing issues.

If you'd ask me would get the same car again, I'd say absolutely...
