Straighten them, put back on, drive under the same conditions --> same result.

I didn't bend them if that is what you mean. Any deep pothole will dent a low profile wheel. These came from NJ. No potholes there, eh?

Maybe you need heavier, stronger wheels where you live.
Again, if you mean me, see the above.

Congrats on your contribution to the "101 Projects for your Porsche Boxster" that Wayne Dempsey has just published. Great book with good illustrations.
