This photo making the rounds

I noticed in the discussion on your wheels in a facebook group, a competitor posted a picture of a cracked and destroyed Ray 10. Thought you should be aware of it.

 

Oof.

 

Looks like ray10s.

Be interested to know the backstory.

 

This is my post on ig and this is my truck.
Here is the story.
I was with a group of friends in Death Valley on Mengal pass going about 30mph down a relatively smooth but gravely/small rocks road. I was aired down to about 20psi. Then at one point my car started to very quickly feel absolutely not right while driving and I quickly called out on the radio that I needed to stop and pulled over and found this. Out of sheer astonishment I posted this, just kind of looking for an answer because this seemed to come out of nowhere. Everyone in the group was shocked. Quickly after posting I realized what negative backlash this post could pose for a company I fully support, despite my very small Instagram following, and I deleted it to avoid this exact situation. Let me be clear that I support SCS and I think they are a great company, they did immediately replace my wheel at no cost.
In retrospect, what happened? Flukes can happen, to any wheel, to anyone.
I also tend to break stuff offroad a lot, tho this situation seemed unique. The possibilities for what could have happened? Maybe I hit a small rock at the exact wrong angle and didn’t notice, causing a crack in the wheel and loss of the tire bead and then rolling at speed over rocks on any wheel would shear it in half. Or maybe somehow I just lost my bead on its own and I lost all the air and again, rolling on literally just the wheel for a couple hundred feet over dirt and rocks may break it just like this. The exact reason for the cracked wheel may never be answered, but what I can say is that SCS stands by their product and sent me another wheel no questions asked. Wouldn’t you support a company like that?

 

You reminded me


Now, back on track. Shit man...
Everything isn’t perfect, this ain’t it chief.

 

And please send anyone who is reposting this photo to me and I will gladly tell them I fully stand behind SCS, their products and their way of doing business. One bad incident should not tarnish a company’s reputation and one persons shocked and inappropriate response by posting about it should not be exaggerated and blasted all over the internet to try to do harm to a good company. I will stand up for scs any day so please spread this, in response to that photo. Thank you

 

Thanks for the facts. I removed the picture.

Now if we could just keep people with competitive agendas from being douche bags.
