Split Rims

They're called "Widow Makers" with very good reason ~ you needn't have any rust on them to have them fail explosively .

There's no way to know when / if they're going to fail and many have died from both the ring cutting their heads off to trucks rolling over at speed when they fail .

Many smoke PCP for years and think it's safe, others are smarter .
