Ouch. Starting with a clean plate may be better than trying to fix that.

I hope you guys are ok.. But I would send those pics to who ever made your rims. Because they should not have failed like that.

That would be Ford. Those were take offs from a Cobra, and they didn't fail till they came in contact with concrete at 50mph. It ripped the whole spindle right off, I think the wheels were justified in breaking.

Holy cow. I have told my wife never swerve from hitting an animal just because this reason. Sorry about your truck, but look on the bright side, you are OK and the truck is replaceable.
