Well of course, ME, the weak point remains the same. The point is if that weak point is too weak. I dont believe so.

Umm yeah that big friggin rock sitting behind the caliper.

You can see another ding on the inside lip of the wheel right at 12:00

Nah, Greg, look close, the spot hes talking (halfway down the most scraped up support piece) about actually appears to have some of the red powdercoat in a gauge. After it separated, it smacked the caliper.

Yes it does look red but with the smaller rocks jammed in between the caliper and the wheel/rotor I think a rock got in there. The wheel looks as though it hit the caliper after being broke but something had to break it first.

Sad. Glad you're ok. Sorry to see one of the sharpest SRT-4s bite the dust - Comm. Ed.

I second - what # of #200 was it?

There seems to be deffinitly force on the rims from GLHS's post in the first page. I hope everything goes OK man. it hurts to see this happen to a fellow SRT owner.
