Just killed one of my Morr VS7 rear wheels with a road hazard this morning

S4to335 · 03-24-2009, 10:08 AM

Frickin unmarked road hazard..I was literally launched into the air with this one..I have a flat..and I think my wheel wont hold air anymore...this wheel has had too much damage.

Anyone got a spare 19X9.5 Morr VS7 for sale...I dont care what color at this point...yes, I have already contacted Carlos at Morr to see if he has anything. It would be great if it were the original color/finish VS7s that were sold.

Bueller..Bueller..anyone?

damn you too? AU335 had a similar problem with a blowout.

GL on finding a new wheel.

dude you and your car just do not get along

GL man, you seriously deserve an award for the shit you've put up with with this car

Sorry to hear... That is one of the big reasons why I will not go with a one-off custom wheel. If something should happen, I can go to my dealership and order another 230 wheel.

I know someone is selling an entire set. For you I think it would be good to have 3 extra with your luck. I commend you for your patience.

It actually crossed my mind to buy 1 or 2 extra wheels waaaay back during our first group buy....but I decided against it. Now that I see a few unfortunate things have happened to other members....I'm kind of thinking it might have been a good idea.

Sorry to hear you're in a spot. Absolutely no chance for a repair job?

Peter@VMRWheels · 03-24-2009, 10:33 PM

Most wheels can be repaired, its just a matter of how much you are willing to spend. If a spare wheel cannot be found, this is probably what you'll have to do.

I saw the damage...I think it is repairable..the issue is..that I want the whole wheel repainted due to road rash on the outside lip..the crack is on the inside edge. Wish me luck....BTW, I got the car on a lift and saw the rest of the damage..exhaust is banged up is three places...one of the attachment points is partially broken...other scrapes underneath..but no suspension or serious undercarriage issues. Glad it isnt worse..I swear I was flying with all four wheels in the air.

Lastly, where is Carlos..I got no response to his website contact stuff..plus a PM on here...I cant remember his real email address. Ugh.

Actually I did..at least its the same wheel getting banged up....Right Rear. It is also the wheel that my wife scraped up when she drove my car last. After scraping my wheel...ruining my tire..and scaping the side skirt..she wont be driving my car again...(I didnt tell her that..she told ME that)

Morr wheels is going to be a bitch to get... look on the bright side. if its going to cost too much, you could just settle for a new set of wheels.
