FYI: Did a search and didn't see this anywhere. Looks like the late 2000, early 2001 wheels are being recalled for possible cracks!

Here is the recall link and the 2nd is where I got the info.

I am still going to check the manufacture date on the wheels. I find it hard to believe they skipped a bunch of early 01's but who knows.

You sure about that? See third line....

Well, I went out to check the production dates but I couldn't find them on the wheel.

I haven't looked yet, but the guy at MW said the dates are on there somewhere. This would just take the cake after watching my paint flake off a month after buying the car....
