      Contact the company and see if they're willing to do anything for you.

          i honestly don't think they will do anything as he bought them used, and got them for really, really, really cheap.

              of course, i would definitely write a super friendly detailed message letting them know what happened and that you are lucky the whole wheel didn't come off, yada yada. they are a pretty big company and are well known, so you never know.

                  Just food for thought:
                  I was running my 16x9 et10 with 20mm spacers making it -10 on 205/45-16 Falkens all around for a day and had slight rubbing with rolled/pulled fenders. The front was at full lock turns on the inner fender lining (no biggie) the back was rubbing stretched sidewall.

                  will be checking 101 frwy for fun now....

                    Why do you have them spaced out so hard?
