not sure why everyone is blaming rota for copying the M7's. From what I can tell, they just took an inferior design and made it 30 times better/stronger. When was the last M7 made - 1995??? Manufacturing techniques have gotten better. Face it, my rota copies will be better than your original m7's. I love it. heheheh.

Well, if you are actually using your car for trackdays then one would expect you to check all your wheels for stress fractures or cracks prior to taking the car out. Sorry to see it happen, but the fact is that wheels are a wear item.

that happened to a wrx a while ago too. it was from a bad batch or something. rota covered all the damages to the car as well. this doesn't happen to all their wheels or they just wouldn't be in business.

It happens. It's racing. It happens to all types/brands of wheels at least once.

Not bad for Rotas, this is like the second situation in 2-3years since that suburau.

Let us know if Rota covers it for you.

I remeber that suburu, are you sure Rota Covered all the Damges incurred by the broken wheel? or did they just replace the wheel?

If they did pcover everything..I have to give rota Props.

even though Everyone say's Rota covers damages, I would never personally use Cast wheel at the track

Whoa, Andrie Hartanto of Prima Racing is sponsored by ROTA and I havent
heard of him having an incident like this and he recently raced a
Speed World Challenge Event at Infineon - Tho I dont know him or his
team personally but if he can consistantly Road Race with them they're
good enough for me.

Hope there was no injuries to individual or car.
