well since there's nothing else that needs my immediate attention, packing up the scored short blocks and sending them back to the seller. douchebag sent me a scored block as a perfect block...

and also gonna testfit mac's box to see if the lip etc. can fit nicely.

it was only after realizing how to calculate girth that I realized that I calculated wrong. girth is only 37-40" approximately for the box but it fit nicely.

its a possibility, but I'd rather sell the car in its entirety, since i have no time to take the car apart. plus, I would need a new bulkhead & plastics so i could take the rollbar out and make it as stock as possible

YULIE ! oh yeah the other day i was shooting the **** with a friend who's a tire/lube tech (not the most prestigious position i know) and the topic of tires came up. Got me thinking after awhile in the conversation about your busted wheel. What tire did you have on there?

We were discussing tires and the topic of RFT's came up and we noted that their sidewalls are much much harder than the average tire. Were yours RFT's by chance? if so, the added isolated pressure/stress on the wheel would have been my bet to crack the powdercoated rim. If they weren't RFT's, what tires were they? check if their sidewalls are notably stiffer.

I would say that based on that alone, that the wheel was very likely weakened because OEM alloy wheels don't usually crack that way. That's just the simulation in my head though and how I would imagine the cookie crumbled. /random
