what happens when you are being dumb on a public street

this:


i hit curb at about 20 mph. my wheel was turned at about a 30 degree angle.....

heres another one

its oversaturated(i was holding the camera too close)
but it shows how badly it is bent. but i drove 40 miles on it because i had to. and its not leaking any air yet. [knocks on wood]
so... does anyone want to sell a wheel cheap???

I lost control in my gxe and stopped on a curb this summer. It only ate a chunk off the rim and i ground down the sharp metal so it wouldnt puncture the tire. My radiator broke though, and I didnt notice my car was running at the H on the temp guage. Better make sure yours didnt break, I didnt notice until the next day and by then the vg had been running dry for a while.

yeah, i learned to do that **** in a parking lot. Still hit a staircase one time though.




LOL, "dorifto" damage!





But there is something cool about sliding completely sideways across the snow in an FF car.

Not everyone can afford to take out a loan and mount G35 wheels on a 3rd gen.

So we have to make do with what we have available. In my case, someone donated free 'stang wheels!!!!

some people fail to realize if you do not have a payment you tend to have more mod money.
