i agree with you on first point, yes everything has a life, but unfortunately the new rims available here are crap, heavy in weight, results your car drivetrain need more pull, more fuel will consumed, wheel hubs need more power to move, jdm or jawa approved rims are according to japan standards, they are lighter in weight, and yes quality is far better, we are only able to get in used condition cz these comes in containers, so we could afford them rest if u want new one then u are much aware about the process of importing. yes A Damage/ Repair rims which has been painted to hide the flaws and other things are totally not recommended, but when everything is fine nor repairs or damage, n yes painted this is understood that for fresh look
