damage to sawtooth alloys
gday everyone

I'm in the final throws of ordering a 2013 defender and just wanted to know of peoples experiences regarding the black sawtooth alloys. In particular if anyone has sustained any damage while playing in the mud or being bogged and going offroad.
Are they more susceptible to getting scratched or chipped ect. due to them having a relatively flat face and no real dish like the boost alloys or dual finish alloys?

cheers

bretto

Dual finish are lacquered so the finish will damage easier than powdercoat.Personally, I would buy some steel wheels for off roading. Pov.spec,ftw. 2006, 110,TD5.
