« on: September 27, 2012, 06:55:00 pm »
Just got to tell some as im wound up.

I got a new car almost a month ago now and the alloys were immaculate...were being the key word.

My mum uses the car during the day and I've come home tonight and checked the alloys and one of them is fu**ed. So piĀ£$ed off but obviously can't say anything as shes not done it on purpose but still its really fu0ked me off. :sad1:

TC would normally say one damaged rim deserves another, but only applies if I was your other half  :grin:

Sorry to hear it mate.

There is a place local to me but I really could do without the cost right now, savings for a house are killing me and i've set aside any spare money for a charity bike ride in 2 weeks (I need new stuff).

I will wait till after winter now as I can see all 4 being done by then. I am always that little bit extra careful when I park up etc not to scratch the alloys, looks like its been steamed into a kerb and run all the way down it. Doesn't even know shes done it, 'whats kerbing?' FFS.

It's reckon its worse when you do it yourself, no one else to blame! Had my Pescara's refurb'd in a lovely gun metal Grey (couldn't be happier) and 2 days later I ran down the side of a kerb while parking, completely FUBAR'd the entire rim. Can't be arsed to get it done again!

I feel for you fella, give your mam a hug, you've only got the one!  :love:

I know it doesnt really matter its just the fact that I look after my car and the alloys dont even have so much as a tar spot on them.

You can drive up kerbs in a 206 with 14" steel wheels not 18" alloys  :fighting:


Im sure I will wake up in a better mood.
