I've had the Borbet Type B on my car for almost 2 years now. No problems. Check them out on my car in the posted cars section.

Yeah, I have borbet B also, for about 4 years. No problems, although I scratched one on a curb (softness typical for alloys, I think). I like the designs, and not everyone has them.
Oh, I did have a problem where the plastic center caps rigidized and eventually wouldn't stay in the wheels. $20 to tirerack and they sent me some new ones. |
