[/IMG]so im rolling along to work about 3 days ago and im on the freeway when i hit this %@&^% pothole. bent rim i could understand, flat tire i could understand. mind u im going around 70 and my tires on this rim are 245/35/20 so its not like im running a ridiculously thin tire or going at a rate of speed that should cause this. i heard a loud bang and my right front side starts wobbling like its a wagon wheel... and i start seeing shit fly past so i pull over and im absolutely floored....
the whole F'IN lip got torn off and left a 2 inch scratch on the top of my wheel well at this point im honestly relieved i came out of this ok because it could have been SOOO much worse.. MORAL OF THE STORY: DONT BUY SEVAS OR EVENT THINK ABOUT IT!!!!!!! now im left with some crappy rims tha i cant even replace or replace beacuse this piece of crap company went out of business. WOW just wanted to vent fellas....

They didn't turn out as good looking as I thought they would. Get the blue powdercoated gunmetal or a different color and I think everything would flow much better.

Nice wheels. iffy on the color though, the accenting chrome lips and bolts saves the look vs an all solid colored wheel. but I will say that they go better on a NBP than SSM.
And yes the 3 peice forged wheels are solid. It's the 1 peice cast ones that blow up.

420...bottom line-keep the blue wheels on your black car, if and only if you like them. It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks...honestly. If you decide to keep the blue wheels, I would suggest you carry that blue theme somewhere else on the car so the wheels aren't the only things that are blue.

I dont even wanna get too involve with the stupidity on here from dudes that dont even have a clue about what they are talking about (half these guys talking that garbage dont even have rims lol) BUT...let me ask this question "do you HONESTLY think Sevas was/is the only company who had a rim crack??" I will wait for the response to this question, then i'll school the rookies on here with some realistic info coming from someone who has had about 30 sets of wheels and knows a thing or two about rims...

I followed the whole Sevas "cracked 1pc wheel" thing a few years back. Matter of fact I'm the one who told him that the Sevas 3pc wheels were okay and that the 1pc wheels were discontinued due to this issue. Definitely not the only company that has had wheels crack but the 1pc had an issue and they recalled and stopped selling all of them. So...why'd ya sell em 22's??

I will have to agree, I had a set of BBS rims on my Porsche 911 that i used to track. let me tell you all that if a rim is going to crack it will crack. as a matter of fact ALL mags / rims made out of Alum or other materials will go no matter what.
I have alot of experience in materials, trust me the aerospace industry is all about stress and fatigue. rims are under alot of stress and one day or another they will let go.
if anyone on this site wants a leason on stress and fatigue give me a shout.
