I busted one of my front hipers in half. I need the inner rim. Does anyone out there still sell parts for these rims?

Did you break the aluminum part or the carbon fiber part? I have a couple CF inner halfs laying around (the skinny, ribbed part between the aluminum and beadlock).

I broke the inside of the wheel, not the aluminum part. The entire inner carbon fiber rim cracked (non-beadlock side), it didnt even break the bead on the tire or bend a tie rod. I was truely amazed and very pissed at the same time. It is just one multiple failures that have come my way this season...:ermm:

Is part of the wheel different on the newer models? I thought the only difference was the aluminum part, and the ribbed part (which is now smooth). I would call them directly, they should be able to help you.

I called Hiper first, and the lady told me they no longer sell parts for these wheels. She said I should check ebay.

Thank you Hiper for supporting this product. My expensive fancy wheel that I am supposed to be able to fix with parts is now rendered useless.

Anyone interested in a set of 9" Hiper Carbon Fiber dual beadlocks? They're innovative and you can replace sections of the wheel when you break them, or can you.....

I got the inners off my old 4-1's if your interested PM me I will let them go if you need them.

Yes the newer inner halfs are about 3/4" wider than the older ones.

I noticed it, also. I cracked the inner of my 4/1's, first style. I replaced it with a new one, from a messed up rim(3 of the bolts wouldn't come out w/o spinning the insets). It works. Everything worked, it just looks alittle different from the other side.
