You like Sevas?

My buddy sure doesnt....anymore that is



2 weeks after purchasing these brand new from a member on these forums my buddy runs over a minor bump and bammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm both driver side wheels gets KTFO!












now i understand why they went out of business. I run with a set of volks, yea boston roads are horribleee but ive hit much harder bumps and holes and came out untouched. The water duct he ran over was very very minor, its like a long sewer drain with a steel grate that dips down about an inch in the tunnel but its not that bad. I go through that same tunnel and drive over the water duct twice a day with no problems. He had the wheels on for 2 week! Brand new tires, mounted at a professional shop...alignment, correct tire pressure. **** sevas!

Sevas S-22. Those are one of the Sevas wheels prone to cracking.

it's almost hilarious at this point why anyone would still be driving with wheels made from this company.

i'm glad there were no injuries.

I probably have a tad more respect for Rotas than Sevas these days

There's a reason why Sevas is no longer in business.
