yeah I tore up the rims of both wheels on my right side when some abortion in a POS Toyota in front of me signaled that he was making a left turn and when I started to pass him on the right... he starts to turn RIGHT!
I scraped the curb and had to get 2 new rims, but i guess that was better than hitting that monkeyman!

LOL...yeah he knows who he is and he is still on the site frequently....luckily he caught it in time after the forum told him to remove the red loctite...

Sorry about that man, I did the same thing but my wheel actually had a little flat spot with not much rash. There is a shop in Chicago that fixes rash but said they probably couldnt fix the little flat spot so had to buy a new wheel. It was on the rear so didnt have to get it aligned. Good luck!
