Default Oh the horror!

You guessed it: she rashed both DS rims on the curbing at the vacuum station. DammitDammitDammit.

So now I gotta save real good for those Axis Gravitys!

But that'll have to wait for a while. Oh the Horror!

Default I feel your pain! >

A week or two after I got the car I stupidly did the same thing. Now I'm so compulsive, most of the time I stop, get out, and walk up.

I don't let the wife drive mine very often. She can scratch up her sentra.

Mine drives a C230-K/SS. Guess she didn't figure how wide the TT footprint is.

Default I asked my wife why she quit wanting to learn to drive the TT...>>

She is/was learning to drive stick in the TT but then all of the sudden quit.

When I asked her why, she told me she was afraid of doing any damage. She knows "I love the car more than her" and now that I have new wheels on it she says shes not driving at all.

Good and bad for me b/c the TT is all we drive on the weekends and I feel like a chauffer. &lt;-- spelled that wrong didn't I?

Default horror indeed. Sorry bro. I live in a ready state of awareness to guard my virgin Fiskes from a

similar state. My wife having the CLS550 to drive helps. ;-) (and the fact I refused to teach her the man stick in my car) LOL

Default Must be a moon phase, I did the same thing at the bank 2 days ago.

My rims aren't in great condition anyway but it still made me mad at myself when I bent the left front lip a little. So now I really want to get new ones. The Axis looks nice but doesn't come in 17".

I saw the TSW Estoril which I kinda liked though I don't know much about these.

Wife feels worse than I do. Wheels we can replace. Just not too often I admonished!
