Really? I had to curb myself at 45mph due to some idiot coming into my lane, big kerchunk sound. Pulled over to check, nothing. Then I noticed the paint missing off my brake caliper. Had the rim pulled and checked, visually & balanced, nothing. Just a clean spot from contact. Anyone else have good/bad experience with the RPF 1? I do not want to find myself flying around a track on faulty rims.

Nothing wrong with RPF1's, they're arguably one of the best lightweight wheels for the money. I hit some serious potholes with the set I had and did end up bending one of the barrels slightly but better that it bend than crack. Considering you can but 2-3 sets of them or one set of Volks I say save your money and get the Enkeis.
