Complaint Description: i have had several wheels on this mitsubishi eclipse damaged. i have owned several eclipses in the past and have never had a wheel bend as easily as these. it seems once they installed the 17 inch wheels they used softer material to manufacturer the wheels which will not stand up to daily driving and usual road surface conditions.*ak .
