Great point - If I went with the 16 inch wheels, I'd probably buy the tires included (I've seen lots of people do that on the parts for sale here). I realize that 16 inch tires will be more expensive, but my main concern is the durability of alloy wheels for city driving - thank you!!:)
Tire pressure could be it - I checked the pressure in early March (at this point I knew that I must have had at least one bent wheel) and a couple tires needed some air, one was down to 24 psi (this is one of the bent wheels as well). I do know that over the course of winter I did hit some bad potholes - the worst is when they fill up with rain and it just looks like a puddle until you hear the BAM!
