So I just got into my first accident...

I was driving home from campus this morning on my usual route which has a fairly sharp left curve (MPH 15), and I took it a little faster than suggested (in the right lane) at 20-23...which I do all the time (I've taken it going 30 before).....and my rear tires slipped out on me, and the back swerved out. I tried to straighten her out but overcompensated and and hit the curb on the right. The SLIP came on just before I hit the curb...... damage to both right side tires, especially the rear.

I have 21k miles on my OEM tires....and going to purchase 4 new tires immediately....how are Kumho's??

waiting to hear from the dealer how much damage...

 

Are your rims and suspension okay?

 

x2 I would be more worried about that than your tires.

Did you have VDC off?

 

they quoted me 2200 to start. and could be more.


Damage to compression rods, transverse links, one bent shock, hub

*tear*

the VDC was on, it activated just before i hit the curb. too late.

 

ouch...good luck
