Real Bad day
I know this is my fault for evein thinking of taking my ride into the city. Coming from brooklyn due to traffic I had to take the local rd on hamilton ave for those who know brooklyn. I was riding behind a big truck when a massive crater came out and I hit the pot hole and damaged both the rim and the new tire badly. Need whole new rim and tire which I ordered today. This Sucks.

ouch sorry to hear about that. I whacked my front left rim on a bad pot hole not a min from my place off to a meet. It bent the rim a bit but UBG and I were able to straighen it back out a bit so it doesn't look so bad. I'm still pissed about it but at least the car still drives straight and the tire was messed up. Good lucking getting it taken care of. That really sucks.

Well I didnt notice at 1st but turns out there was body damage. The car had bottomed out and the passenger panel underneath the door to the wheel was damaged and pushed in. The car is already in the bodyshop today to get fixed. So a new rim, a new tire, and bodywork needed because of a crater in the road. THIS SUCKS!!! And I was having Rich detail the car on sunday and had to cancel on him. I hate doing that!!
