Angry Semi + Tire = #$%#$^$%&%&

I've heard stories of semis running over a big *** tire and it hitting your car. Well that fkin sh11 just happened to me -___-


What are the chances of me being THERE at that TIME with a big *** semi between me and a wall on a narrow *** highway while there is a car behind me so i couldn't avoid it anyway?!?!?

sorry i just had to vent somewhere..

Most likely i have to pay this out of my pocket too.. -___-

Best of luck!

Look at it this way... damages could have been MUCH worse. At least you're OK and the tire didn't get in front of the car.

Can't tell from the pics. Any dents? Looks like you just need a new paint job in that area.

Damn. Did the big gash go completely through the protective bra? Looks like it might've, cause I see red underneath it.

Did it tag your sideskirt corner too? Or is that just lighting that it makes it looks white/damaged?

i checked and luckily no dents, a tire hitting you at 70 mph is no joke lol.

I say if it's more than 2K or 1.5K take it to ya insurance.. but that's based off a 500. deductible. Side note.. u know the insurance company can raise ya rate

No they can't.

It's a comprehensive claim not an actual collision with another driver.
