i don't think you'll have defects. i'm just worried if your wheels will ever come.
damn! have you contacted your supplier yet? you should check for updates. you should've gotten your wheels in 6-8 weeks.

They always look perfect, and usually work right away. The wheels would have issues down the road. Chrome coming off the lips, spokes cracking, wheels not being able to balance correctly, the actual bolts to put the wheels together would crack in half.

I say good luck man, and since their custom wheels im sure their is no return, but I pray for real that you never have an issue.

I hope this is the end to all your car problems. Put those other wheels on Ebay and just get whatever you can for them. If there is anything you need help with, call me.

not to dig up an old thread, but I was thinking of buying the r66 wheels and started doing my google research. Came across a bunch of horror stories then read this whole thread.

new. was going to talk to andy....

I think I'll pass on sevas all together though, even if they are out of business or bought out of whatever. I'd rather not have the thought of my wheel cracking and breaking while on the highway always on my mind...

I really do love the look of the r66's in gunmetal though



OP, sucks to hear the nightmare.

I guess I can bring this back from the dead somewhat...here are my S55 from this weekend...right rear rim...

Like the title says...coming home tonight with my wife from my friends wedding reception I hit a pretty good size hole on the black top road up to my rents house and this is what happened....







here are some new pics taken the next morning after removal...come to find out that my front passenger side is bent as well and everytime I turn the car it looses air now..

holy ****! It really isn't just a fluke with sevas. seems like everyone's rips apart when they hit a pothole. Glad I decided to go a different route. Sorry to see, but glad everyone is ok.

I hope you are getting rid of them and switching to a dif kind...
