Persian, yeah I dunno man, I HAVE hit some pretty nasty bumps at high speed in my Foose and Vertini wheels before, some of which made me feel I definitely should've damaged them, but they always withstood damage.

From Isaiah and now your experience, I personally would stay the heck away from Miro.

I'm not sure how a $5000 set of wheels would of held up vs these $1200 set of wheels hitting a large object at 70+ mph but I wouldn't think in that situation it would have ended well either.

No pun intended? hah.. sorry couldn't resist.


Just seems like an odd happenstance.. I can't picture how it happened which makes it more of a mystery to me.
