hi guys ,
need your help here , I was wondering if anybody else had cracked wheels with their editon 1 , the wheels that comes stock with the black matte and the white one I think .

I've had 3 wheels cracked but I dont remember hitting a pot hole or anything . they cracked perfectly straight ...really weird . Of course if not on the warranty and 2000 $ a piece here in canada I would like to know if it a manucfacture problem or I'm just really unlucky thanks !

I have the black 19s and haven't had an issue and I've hit my share of potholes! Perhaps I'm lucky. I think I've heard of other folks cracking them though.

I haven't had any problems with mine and I've hit a few good potholes.

I've never had problems with mine, but I've heard someone on this forum cracked them too. Also, they are cast wheels which are not as strong as forged ones + the road in Montreal lol. Don't buy those wheels from the dealer. They are way overpriced.

What's wrong with the roads in Montreal ? Lol ...I cant believe they 're not forged at that price :/ No chance I'm buying from the dealer , I'm looking into the Hre p43c

Excuse my ignorance, but what does a cracked wheel exactly look like?

MTL roads do sucks! Lol I just got back from there yesterday, and it was an nightmare driving there.

Seriously though, great choice to replace them with HRE.. That's what I'm doing, driving on my forged P40.. And using my oem 19's for winter storage.

Now let's hope they don't crack in my cold garage. Lol If they do, I'll be the first lawsuit against MB Benz chinaware multispoke wheels. Muhahaha!

Off topic, but is there a way you could ask how much to replace your CF sidemirrors? For informative purposes of course...

My stock carbon fiber came with defected weave and I asked the dealer to replace it for me. My SA told me without the warranty, I'd have to pay $2000ish each... I didn't believe my ears lol.

lol my point exactly!
