I just hit a huge rock in the road!!!
Okay when I went up the road I saw this big rock in the other lane so I made a mental note to get over so I wouldn't hit it on the way back. Well I get over on the way back home but apparently more cars have hit it so it moved. Next thing I know BAMMM!!!!! The way it sounded I knew I just messed up one of my rims. Okay the outside part of my rims is fine!! But on the inner lip it put a dent in it about 1/4 of a inch. It looked a whole lot worse the first time looked at it, but is there something I can do??? A long time ago didn't Grey fix one of his rims that this happened to??

Rep Power: 0 maybe you could pound it out somehow. Im guessing just get a rubber hammer or something so you don't scratch up the inside of your wheel and see what happens.

Rep Power: 0 I pounded on it for about 10 minutes last night with a rubber hammer. It looks a little better now. I think this weekend i'll take the rim off and see what i can do.

I don't think Grey bent his rim, I believe it was severely scratched, but I could be wrong. i just bent 2 of my rims.. I'm supposed to be getting a digi-cam tomorrow, so I'll post pics of both rims soon.. made me vry when I saw them.

Rep Power: 0 I believe the correct terms are 1. "Oh, sh*t!" followed quickly by 2. "Son of a b*tch!!" Man that looks painful.
I sure hope it doesn't cost ya too much to fix it man. Good luck.

I hit a pothole in MA (495S) @ 75mph.. It was probably a lil more than 1" deep and about 1' wide.. I was passing another car so I didn't see it til it was too late.. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG]
