Bent a rim :(

Dammit. I cant believe i freakin did this. This morning i was on my way to walgreens, pulled out and ended up hitting a median.... curb check.... BAM!!!!!!!!!!!!:wallbash:

dammit... Front driver side rim is scratched pretty bad, rear driverside needs to be replaced.

Ripped open my Sumotomo 315, got a hole about the size of a quarter in it

So now im running my stock rims. gotta buy a new rim and tire now.

Good luck finding one that is the same dish. A guy I know messed up a rim and had to get another, and the dishes were different.

I see this all the time at work...the curb pushes the tire up over the lip of the rim on impact and it "pinches" a hole in the tire.

The dishes havnt changed to my knowledge. Could have been two different manufacturers though.

You ****ed that **** up though dude. At least it is only a rim and not anything that would have a major repair bill attached.
