Well, I don't know about you, but it'd have scared the sh*t out of me! I hit a lump of concrete on the A3 in my Mk4 1.8T a few years ago, and it cracked the alloy and burst my contisport tyre. Lost control, and only just got it back before I'd have ended up in the Guildford car boot sale! You're a hard man, Top Cat!

I would genuinely change that tyre.  It has taken a right hit, and probably has unseen damage.

Don't chance it IMO.

Guys it's not a nice feeling honest. When I hit I remember shooting across te road in other lane ten pulled back and almost hot the soft verge. I don't want people taking the piss. I know I expect it. I don't mind. But the car is ok just. I'm ok just 2 stone lighter lol. Now have brown leather. Lol. I'm in the royal navy and I had to explain it all today to the royal navy police. Lol. But all is fine. And yes it's a OEM monza. Lol. Anyone know anyone selling a monza alloy. Ad anyone near Halifax west Yorkshire. At end of month as I gotta go back so home at end of month and want to plug vagcom in and have a scan.

I would change that tyre as well as you don't know what the condition of its sidewall is after that impact.
Without traction power is nothing!
