Heavy track use makes wheels a disposable thing.
If you want to dispose of your SV503 after tracking the Ring, I’ll take them...LOL

Heavy track use makes wheels a disposable thing.
Heavy track use makes wheels a disposable thing. They just slowly bend in all directions. Aluminum doesn't return back from bending very well (not as good as spring steel). Especially when it's hot, due to brakes and tires heat.
SV503 is clearly a stronger design and I expect it to live longer under abuse
Wheels becoming very hot on the track, so they lose some of material flexibility. I saw wheels losing axis over time and edges rolling out to the extent that tire can't keep air pressure. My understanding that curb cutting is the main thing that leads to those effects. Street use without accident makes them last a car lifetime.Everything is ultimately disposable, due to fatigue, everything. It’s the duty cycle of the cyclic stress which defines when a product will fail.
Properly designed wheels don’t bend with normal usage (road/track etc), they flex. This causes a slow change to the grain structure within the material which eventually causes cracks to form. Apart from hitting solid objects too hard, if a wheel permanently deforms, it hasn’t been designed correctly, or it has been manufactured from the wrong material/incorrect heat treatment (T0 or T3 for example)
If you try to bend high tensile aluminium which has been heat treated to T6 spec (which I have tried!) it will start to crack before it permanently distorts.

That literally looks like a worm hole.Waiting patiently for spring time to come around and have these mounted...

DM sentNew to the forum. Will be placing an order on a black LR M3. Looking to maybe get a set of Signature wheel to replace the factory ones. Wondering how would matte gunmetal wheels look on black? Any pictures would be greatly appreciated.
DM’dDM me with info please. I’ve got an M3P on order and am curious the cost. I love this setup.
Any promos on these right now? My M3 is on orderTwo lucky owners are getting their freshly built wheel ship today
