I was Cruising down the road today at about 80 MPH on a local toll Road when my front passenger side of th car started shaking incessantly! I pulled over to check things out more closely because I new something seemed up with my Vert and I noticed One of my Spoke Arms on My Front Passenger 99-04 5-Spoke Design Chrome Saleen Stamped Wheel was and is almost cracked all the way through!!! Bummer! So I cruised my ride home, grabbed a few of my Powder coated Black Saleen wheels (Which I was going to put on anyways Next Week for the Fab Ford Show) and headed to the Tire Shop! My friends Tire shop said I should get a hold of Saleen and complain about the wheel spoke cracking through for a only 40K Mile Car! Has Anyone ever had this happen to any of there Saleen Wheels, back or front??? I'm guessing that Saleen has no warranty on the Integrety of there wheels, am I correct???? I was curious if this is a common problem! I hope not, because its going to make me think twice about how I take some turns in the car!!

Todd.

Yea, I have seen a few cracked. It's been a long time. You know there was a wheel recall years ago on quite a few wheels. I have the recall info somewhere.

Dennis has it too.

You'll have to check the date on the wheels to see if they qualify under the original recall...

I have heard of people with cracked wheels that fell outside of the recall dates get replacements with no problem. Just call some of the people you know at Saleen.

Glad to hear you stayed out of trouble when the wheel gave way.
