As I'm paranoid about the 326s cracking, when I hit a couple of quite big potholes at the weekend (couldn't see them until too late), I had all four wheels off yesterday to check for damage. They were all fine (so far), but I noticed that mine are stamped as being manufactured in Poland by Ronal.
Does anyone know if all 326s were made by them?

All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

Are you put off by the fact that they're manufactured in Poland?

not sure if its the same with 326M's but with 313s fitted to the E9* range, they did 'early' ones which cracked to buggery, but then a revised version appeared circa 2011 which had a thicker inner lip which seem more robust.

I was trying to find out if all the 326s were made in the same place, which may account for some being stronger than others if they were not!
