james Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 seems to me that the rubbing that has occurred weakened the wheelnever mind this just read post on page 1 nowhhhhhmmmmm it looks to be over tightened wheel nuts but 100lb is not much ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wezza9 Posted May 29, 2011 Author Share Posted May 29, 2011 yes i think they where the ride is ok better with 16" it does not catch i will take my torque wrench in to work and check it againest the calibrated ones the powder coating goes to 150 degrees which is not that high i was told one of the early S1 elise wheels should not be powder coated so it could be that i am taking the wheel to a wheel specialist on tue they do all sorts so they should be able to tell me what happened as well as roll my arches on the rear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wezza9 Posted May 29, 2011 Author Share Posted May 29, 2011 its ok i would not sell on the wheel could have had a knock that is why the weights where so high and it fractured if it had been on the back or other side it would have been ok maybe ?????
