Hit a pothole a few days ago....
I was driving along a great stretch of repaved 'smooth as butter' road and was enjoying it too much that I didn't have enough time to stop where the road workers had decided to stop paving and had left a HUGE gap in the damn road! I wasn't going very fast but that pot hole was just too big and BAM!!!
Well.... I kept driving up I felt the car was different after that. I drove back to the car shop and turns out both the left front and back wheels got slightly messed up and were slightly wobbly on the wheel machine.... so I had to have them straightened out again. Took 50 bucks each tire but somehow they got it back to brandnew condition.... Potholes really suck. I can't make up my mind if it's because Kelleners Hamburg rims are too 'soft' or what..... I never had ANY problems with my M166 (M5) rims on my E60 and I drove the hell out of them for 2-3 years! Anyways, I'm back to normal. The car drives smooth just like it's supposed to.... PS: The shop had just finished outfitting an F11 with a complete Kelleners upgrade. I'll post it up in the forum with pics. Last edited by BigMikeTwn; 04-10-2012 at 09:55 AM.. |

Back driving the car. The rims were straightened out to just like they were new! I'm sure it'll be a few months before I hit another hidden pothole and end up there.... again!
Roads are really bad here..... |
