Just a heads up, SMW Wheels (https://smwwheels.com/) is bankrupt, but they haven't officially filed yet. Unfortunately, they are still accepting deposits for custom wheels even though they have no...

The jail comments were not mine. I did say it's criminal, but maybe there is a better word. It goes beyond negligence though.

Right. Makes sense. I believe the issue started very late in the '22 model year. I'm not aware of any cars older than a '22 with this exact issue.
