Stock 18 in rims bent- Any stronger aftermarket 18 in rims out there..?

[kk60302]

Hi there
So we live in Chicago and have a 2023 Model 3 Long Range and is just over a year old . The issue is that we had to replace two rims (front and rear passenger side ) twice in a year. The 2nd pothole did not even register as one and so I am thinking a modest pothole. Fast forward to today , we have an instance of a slow leak on front passenger side tire. Will be taking to the local tire shop to see if it is a tire or rim problem.
Seeking advice here on
1, Any recommendations of aftermarket 18 in rims that more durable than stock ones ? I am okay with heavier aftermarket rims with the premise that it would be to absorb modest pot holes better..
2. Would getting the Martian forged aluminum rims be able to handle potholes better ..?

Thanks in advance
KK

One caution: I’m having a hard time imagining impacts that bend 18” rims not being super hard on the suspension if the rims are made stronger…

But yes, there are definitely stronger wheels available!

Aftermarket 18" of flow forged or fully forged construction should fit your bill.
I can advise some options for you. Feel free to message me!
