Default my emergency parts have arrived ...

<center><img src="http://m3.mayzurk.com/meem/tt/parts/rations.jpg"></center><p>should be able to get this combo mounted up tomorrow and be back in business. considering the wheel and tire got damaged around noon on monday, i'm pretty pleased to have the replacement parts in my hands in just two days -- especially given that (a) there are no bbs lm's of the right size in stock at bbs north america (and none are due to arrive until november), and (b) the toyo t1-s has been discontinued.

in the meantime, the sliced tire has thankfully held together, though the knick on the lip of the lm has the wheel ***** in me going ape****.

Default haha -- i wish that was true but ...

i'm hoping i will be able to completely fix the damaged rim and keep one under glass myself (perhaps as a coffee table most of the time ;-)

For the same price. Unless you didn't get them from the same place.
