The appradio 2 has been great for me since I'm very techy. YMMV, and I wouldn't recommend the casual smartphone user as it relies heavily on your phone. Most of it has been outlined in my review but if you have any questions, I will answer them as best as I could or point you in the right direction.
PM sent about the springs!
 
Try some stronger wheels. Team dynamics have a good reputation for strength. Low pressure casting and Enkei MAT make stronger wheels than gravity casting (which is how most cheap wheels are made). Forged is the best but its reflected in a very high price.
 
I've had genuine Volk LE28's before on my old S2000 and they were great. Sunday was the perfect scenario for damage. High heat, bad roads, and I just lowered the pressure to 40PSI. There's good and bad reviews of this brand. I think the way I hit the pothole a large majority of wheels would've bent.
 
This is why I want 6UL 15x7.5", they strong, light and they look great ;)
I was going to buy Drag wheels but after looking at your bent wheel, well I changed my mind.

ha :( ok, now what, I still got a year to decide what wheel to buy. Looks like no matter what wheel, if the hole is big enough it will bend.

May as well get a low cost and replace when they die hi hi hi

Just gotta learn how to swerve outta the way. Although I gotta say my konigs have held strong to everything I've put them through. I've taken on some pretty big bumps too.
All rims will bend if you hit a hole or whatever just right. Either do your best to avoid them or spend more money than you thought you could ever dream of spending on a set of rims....and even then...they can get scratched =(
