New 2009 2010 BMW Z4 - ZPOST - View Single Post

What do you think came first ... a wheel bend or the crack?

I am attaching more close up photographs of the BMW Type 296 driver side rear wheel that has a 2.00" long crack approximately 0.031" (1/32") open at the very top.

I believe BMW runout check tolerance is 0.300 mm

Photos are in my garage on page 3 here

NOTE THE WHEEL IS CLEAN, ON THE OUTSIDE DIAMETER OF THE RIM THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO MARKINGS OR EVIDENCE OF ANY IMPACT DAMAGE WHATSOEVER.

Thanks Fellow Forum Members for your Help
