One sad, sad set of pictures (hit a curb)
Found this behind a Lexus dealer. IS350 had been bought on a Friday, and this happened Saturday night! It's so sad, I can't even think of anything sarcastic to say.

I'm no crash expert but that looks like someon took a corner a bit too hard and understeered right into a curb.

i dont think he fishtailed into anything, its the Front Passenger wheel, he must have been spinning after making a hard right turn or something like that.

Is it covered under warranty?
I'n all seriousness, based on some of the other outlandish claims in other threads, someone will ask. Or sue, claiming a defective wheel.
