As I was driving to work today I took a turn a little to fast and spun my 05 coupe into a curb and ran over a sign. I did a complete 180 and my back right tire hit the curb and my back bumper hit the sign. The sign left a nice dent, but I am more worried about what happened to my wheels. As i drove away everything seemed normal but when i hit the brakes a heard a weird noise coming from the back right wheel. It is almost like a crunching sound every time the wheel goes around.

So what i really want to know is what the possible damage could be to the chassis, or alignment. The wheel kind of looks like it is angled sort of like this / if you were looking at it from behind.

Sorry for no pictures but they wouldn't even help.

 

its best to get the car up in the air. there can be a number of things, bent or broken arms, sways, diff. etc. good luck with the repairs

 

Question,Was your VDC off?

 

Yea it was off i forget to mention that

 

There could be alot wrong. Get it checked out

 

VDC off FTW until you forget it's off and go a little crazy. Sorry to hear about your mishap but definitely let a mechanic check it out. I wouldn't drive it like that, you could be making something worse.

 

thanks everyone i'm not driving it until i take it to a mechanic

 

Yea if VDC was on you would never of spun out like that haha. Just wondering, I always keep VDC on regardless unless I am on a track.

 

VDC on the newer cars isnt so intrusive... on the G35 its terrible.... on my Z i barely notice it come on...

 

damn dude was it wet out? if not then you definitely need new tires...my Vredensteins never had any problems in the dry at any speed so far with the way i push it, and in the wet its not bad either

 

Raise it and post some pics... hard to tell otherwise.

 

lift it and take pics. how fast u were going would help reenact what happened
