WAAAAHHHHH!!! JUST GOT RIMS AND...
man, i got some sweet 18's and put them on yesterday...THEN IT STARTS SNOWING!!!!
no biggie, i thought. I needed to take a friend home so i figure that i'd drive really slow. It worked until i needed to pull into my street. I started to turn SLOWLY and hit a patch of packed snow. With nothing I could do, I watched the curb come closer and closer, until BAM!
I felt my heart stop, and my breathing became shallow.
All i could think about was the rims, front end and undercar damage.
To my surprise, my front end was fine, the rim has a small bend in it (as far as i know), and i couldn't see/feel any damage under the front end.
Now i'm all worried that i bent up the frame, crossmember, or suspension components. I don't wanna see that when i get under my car...
On a lighter note, my konis also came in!

Rep Power: 0 DAMN man, I feel your pain. I just scuffed one of my rims on a curb last week. I wanted to cry... 
The damage probably won't be noticeable to other people, but it is to me. I think I'm just gonna buy another rim and tire so I can have a matching full size spare...
