Awhr,
A bunch of my thread was deleted from the revert. Didn't even notice until now.

I slid into a curb at like ~35mph and bent my wheel on the passenger side. Finally found another wheel for a decent price with a good tire on it! Bring the wheel to my work where my car was because I didn't wanna drive it home with a bent wheel, get it allllllll jacked up and shit in the 7 degree weather, wheel off and what not, andddddddd the wheel is 4x100. :@

So now I gotta wait until Monday to get a new wheel because the place isn't open. I forgot how annoying it is not having a car.



Can't tell it's bent too much from the picture but holy god does the steering wheel shake back and forth when you drive it.

I hope its only the wheel that got fucked up and not any suspension components.

Same, hopefully it's just the wheel. That sucks ass about the new wheel being 4x100. I'd have been so pissed.


I remember when I had my EX-R, I hit a 2x4 or something on the highway at about 75mph, and a couple minutes later my steering wheel started vibrating really bad. I was like wtf is happening. Pulled over and turned out the wheel I hit the 2x4 with, had actually shifted the tire's cords under the tread, towards the outside of the tire and had bulged the outside of the rubber and leaving a flat spot in the middle. Probably the weirdest thing I've ever seen a tire do.

Haha, wow that's some crazy stuff.

lol craziness.

It's finally Monday so I'm going in there right now to get the other wheel and FINALLY SHE'LL MOVE AGAIN!

[brsteinbach]

Where'd you go? Schmidt's?

[Ander]

Nah, a place on Sherman. But he doesn't have a 4x114.3 rim :@

So! I'm about to pick up some EX alloys with tires for cheap. Hopefully that pans out and my car will move again.

Sweet pics! I love the new wheels. Some fogs would make that front end look great.
