SilverSoop Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Hi all, i did a really utterly stupid thing when i was driving to work this morning! When i was driving my supe, i passed one of those annoying trafic calmers too closely and whacked the corner of the traffic calmer quite hard as i was in a rush. I have totally buckeled my rear n/s wheel and my tyre and very badly kerbed my front n/s wheel. The rear wheel is beyond repair sadly. Im annoyed because they were very nice wheels! Anyway does anyone have any wheels up for sale preferably cheap-ish?? Stock 16''s or 17''s or anything really because i cant drive on that stupid space saver for too long!

Stevie Boy Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Sorry to hear that bud, did similar think quite a few years back when I had a left hooker Lancia Integrale and was still getting used to driving "goofy" . Middle of summer, saw a scantily clad lady walking down the pavement on the other side of the road, turned to have a gander and double wallop, news to me they decided to start putting traffic Islands lengthways accross the roads instead of longways and took out front and rear wheels+tyres on the right hand side. Managed to save one wheel but took ages to source a front plus fact i needed two tyres meant there was no point getting the spare out and a long wait for the AA ensued. I hope she appreciated me checking out her chassis, If she'd put some clothes on before she'd left home it would have saved me a fortune! Might wanna get your wheel alignment checked once you got some wheels sorted. If your wack was hard enough to write-off a wheel good chance a steering arm/track rod could be bent or at best tracking may be out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
