Hope you're feeling lucky if you are.



This wheel is on my friend's '02SE. No track time, no R-compounds. Street miles, autocross, and mountain driving.

 

wow thats crap

 

Ops!

 

Ouch, must be a bad wheel. I have a set and my wheels have seen several track days, several autocrosses, lots of daliy driving and a weekend in the gap. Has he checked to see if Konig will replace it?

big deal, he's got 7 more spokes

 

Is the rim bent? Did he hit a big pot hole or something? Basically, what were the events that led to failure? If the ****** just cracked for no good reason, I'm sure Konig will replace it.

 

Konig wont replace it if driven on the track...but yeah, the wheels are known to be weaksauce.

 

my circuit 8's were gorilla strong

 

My Dad is running a set 15's he's had for 7years with no issues... but it's a known issue the spokes are weak.

 

Old Circuit 8's had hollowed out spokes on the backside. I have a set and there are cracks on multiple spokes of all 4 wheels. I spoke to the importer and they said they'd warranty them, but they want all 4 wheels back. I just need to get off my *** and send them in.

I've never had any issue with my heliums. I've owned a set since they were new, those have done many autocrosses and street driving on punishing roads. I've owned another set that saw two seasons of autocross, a track day and some miles on the road. The person that owned them before me tracked his civic with them for a couple os seasons. No issues with 8 wheels.

Not to say that it can't happen...

 

no problems here, I've had my 15's on two Miatas and they've seen the South Dakota spring break up roads and a couple of autoX's

 

they are cheap to replace and very lightweight...


me no care break wheel.

 

What size tires do you have on them?

Me care break wheel.

You could easily roll your car if the wheel has a catastrophic failure while autocrossing, on the track or on the street.
