So what was the lesson learned? Steelies don't crack? smile.gif
I call those mini ditches. Looks like it was a pretty deep hole to do that much damage.
I want pictures of the pot hole!

Your new rims are very nice biggrin.gif.
haha yea i did pay for them, was hoping insurance would cover a little, but if i claim it rates will go up so thats a no.

got the new wheels on and absolutely love them, need to get pics, shame its raining outside
pot hole or sink hole? Holy crap man that's rough!
What I wanna know is how fast were you going when you hit that epic fault line? Holy canoli


New rims are really nice, I like 'em! The old ones were curbed all to hell anyway wink.gif
haha yea i was doin around 45. and yes they did have major curbing, not cuz of me tho.
HOLY SH*T, that is unbelievable! You live in Virginia Beach, right?? Well, I live in Chesapeake, so please tell me what road exactly you were on?? I want to make sure I never get on it LOL! I just got new wheels on my ride!
Wow thats pretty bad....I like the new rims better than the old ones though.

Damn that was a hell of a pot holes, new wheels look good, i noticed you are in virginia what part, i hope i dont see anything like that around here, ive already been through a cracked wheel before.

here is one pic, dont have the rest with me, but i did take a bunch of photo and got some hd footage of the new wheels biggrin.gif

WOW!! No whip-lash? No way to have the Dept Of Hiway & Transportation cough up $$ ??
Did u keep the throttle steady or did you try to slow down? U should have hit the boost man, that ought to clear those damn dimples in the tarmac.

Nice rims btw, Those OZ's were are pretty cool, your new ones are nice too, I've never heard of /G/ though ... Or is that the same as Gram Lights? I've heard of those.
