R rim - anyone ever have this happen?

[Warpath]

Can you rock guard the inner barrel of the wheel to help prevent this?

I assume the wheels are still holding air and it's just cosmetic?

Yes, cosmetic only.

Its kind of funny, someone just got done telling me that it hardly ever happens. Well, Im afraid it does.

Here is the thread if anyone is interested in carbon fiber wheel repair.

those wheels are one of the best things about the car. run the cf wheels in the heat of summer and signatures the rest of the year.

I agree with you 100%. I experienced the CF wheels for 20 miles when I first got the car (driving it to and from the detail shop to have the PPF put on the car). The handling was incredible, I felt a noticeable difference as soon as I installed the Replica R wheels.

But I'm really picky about my cars man, I know it would bother me if those CF wheels got damaged. Maybe in a few years when the car doesn't feel as special to me anymore i'll put the CF wheels back on it. For now, I enjoy keeping them in my basement and running the replicas.
