i got so lucky my driver side tires didn't get effed up .. only the lip suffered but is fixed now .. i had the guy check the tires as well .. wouldn't hurt but he told me everything looked pretty good ... I'm a lucky one .. but i think some of our TAX MONEY should go to junk A$$ roads and stuff instead of other stuff they got going on lol !!

I think any rim with a LIP will be more susceptible to damage. The tire took a lot of the hit... 245/35/19 on a 8.5" wide rim. So decently beefy. My rear rim was fine. 9.5 with 275/35/19.Originally Posted by Blue Dream
Sorry to see this as well as the other damage shown here. This pic illustrates that even $3000 wheels aren't indestructable.

yea my fronts are 8.5 with 245/35 and they were fine but i went with a 265/30 rear and i think if i had the 35 in the rear i would have been ok but i dont no for sure cause i hit the hole pretty bad .. i think i nipped the hole with my front but my rears went right in the middle !! but I'm lucky the tire didn't blow ....
