Pot hole vs: Wheel = failllllll
Pot hole vs: Wheel = failllllll
yupp on the way to work 3rd shift and 2 min away from work i see i giant pot hole i swerved almost side swiped another car and still hit the hole !!!! bent the rim ... the money i have for my fender roll is now being used in the morning to get my wheel fixed .... luckily i still made it to work with no flat tire . and worked 10 hrs and came back and air was still in the tire so thats a good sign . front wheel is fine just the rear rim bent .. but i think it can be fixed !!! what a day WHAT a day




yea its really not that bad its only like a inch long right on the lip the rim itself is not bent ... i talked to the guy locally and he said the way i told him and it really isnt all that bad he said like $50+ bucks ... i need it done :-(

All the snow/rain we got this year REALLY screwed up the roads.
I too was a victim.
Before:

After HUGE POTHOLE

Tire took most of the beating and is fine. The rim got a slight bend in the lip.
