i was driving at night in a residental area, and i could not avoid the pothole in time. and bent the frnt passenger wheel. probably send it out to a wheel shop friday afternoon (tru-wheel..maybe). ..what can i say **** happens.

first two pics are random pics before the damage.




and now










the pothole..








only good news is the rim holds air...(for now)...
if anyone has any good wheels shop they can recommend in the socal area...let me know.

 

OUCH!

 

Holy fizzuck, that's a huge pothole!

It sucks how the rain managed to float out all of the pebbles that used to keep our potholes from being 5 feet deep.

 

say it ain't so.

 

that bend isnt ****, you got lucky. with the size of that pothole im suprized the lip didnt crack. to ssr

 

! dang sux bro

 

That's a huge pothole
At least the wheel is fixable.

 

You call that a pothole!! That is a ******* CRATER!! Damn those are some good wheels, they should be able to fix that right up man no worries!

 

dude...i pulled into 7-11 and went right into a pothole that big... i checked my rims first..even tho theyre rotas lol nothing happened to them...but..my wings west side skirts got fucked up at the end (the part near the rear wheel where it extends down) i think the pothole i hit was a couple inches deeper than that one . good luck on getting your rims fixed..cuz theyre are dope

 

ima report this pot hole to the city....maybe try to get them to pay for the damages...i dunno...all i can do is hope.

 

sucks jared

Thats what I'd do, worst they can do is say no

 

I know here in Toronto if any damage to a car is caused by a pot whole you can actually get the city to cover you for a new one. It is the cities responsibilty to have roads under proper driving conditions, so just snap some pics of the pot hole and your rims and stress to them that it happened in the middle of the night and how at least the pot hole should of been patched up or marked with a sign a head. Give it a try you never know!

BTW...sweet RSX!

 

man that sucks.... those rims look hot tho

 

ouch!

 

make the city pay. give them the reciept for the rims. tell them they owe you a new one and attach the pictures to it all. assuming they are digi prints have them printed somewhere. VA paid for a lot of rims. just take all your documents to the courthouse and talk to a clerk. they will guide you along.

 

that sucks man

 

man that blows

 

That'll pop right back in

Sorry, just had to say it. That's a shame

Great lookin' car too

 

ah ****...I feel ya man. My rims get me into **** to, but their 19's on my slammed 5 series.

 

ouuuchhh... sue the state!...thats BS that they can leave a hole like that unfixed..

good luck tho!

 

damnnn...sorry jared... i hate potholes...
