That is the dumbest wheel design Ive seen in awhile. I think xxr tried to get the most concave spokes instead of focusing on safety lol. I cant imagine how much stress is on those spoke bends...

Yeah most do but this looks semi comfortable. I adjusted a set of Bilstein PSS9's I installed a while back and even with gloves my hand hurt a bit after adjusting them, and that was on a lift. the wrnech was just a flat piece of metal, not very ergonomic at all.
