Default My wheel fawkin cracked. *pics**help*

So this morning I get this annoying almost squeeking, rubbing sound thats consistant as the wheel turns. I make a appointment for tomorrow morning. But later in the day I take a corner today over the speed limit but nothing stupid, I get done with it and my wheel starts to wobble back in forth as if My wheel is unbalanced. I drive for about 3/4 a mile until I can pull over safely and I check the lugs when I notice my fucking wheel is cracked ALL THE WAY THROUGH. Straight up cracked, I hit no bump what so ever, I do not see at ALL how this could of happened.

Can someone please enlighten me on how this could be done? Here are pics, Also is there any possibility of me getting a new wheel from 5zigen?

which dealer did you get the 5zigen wheel from? if they are an authorized dealer, they should be able to see if they can claim a warranty on the wheel if it is within a reasonable amount of time.

Can't go wrong with them. Get the 17's in gunmetal. Those would look sweet on your Accord. :goodjob:
