F*&K!N POTHOLE!!! Finally got one of my wheels(thats discontinued now)
Finally got one of my wheels and probably the strut and bearing. Last night making a right turn goin about 15 mph or less I managed to dip my left frt tire into a man hole size pothole and took a chunk out of the sidewall and bent the lip. I pop the hood and notice the top of the strut is shoved up about and inch now over the other side. Wonder if I just bent a top plate or something on the strut or what? Any ideas anyone that has hit one? Now today I call Tire Rack to see if my wheel can still be had and he tells me the wheel has been discontinued for 2 years. I bought these wheels last year in march. What are my options now for finding a good wheel to match. I have the AT Italia Flash Sports. They are the darker charcoal centers over the normal bright silver Italia Flash. They are 18 x 8. There has to be one of these wheels left over somewhere. I love the look of these wheels and don't want to change them. I don't really like the idea of having the wheel fixed since the lip is a polished stainless steel ring pressed onto the outer lip. Anyone got any ideas to help ease my mind today???
