After cracking a rear wheel, I had to buy my baby new shoes. Didn't care for the "spider legs" look of contemporary wheels, so I went with flow forged OEM GM ZR1 wheels in Carbon Flash finish to match the CF everywhere else on the car. Fingers crossed!

Was it a design flaw or did you hit something?

Both. Poor design for cast aluminum plus hitting a cement edge of a deteriorated asphalt approach. Grundy insurance covered it all. I like the five point style better anyway. Cruising on...
