The biggest pothole known to mankind. I think it's so bad because I hit a pothole on my way to the Nashville meet last year, and me and my ex hammered it out. So it was already semi-weak.

Nope. It was at night and I wasn't paying attention. Woke up the next morning and my tire was completely flat.

Nice!

I've hit a few at night that I'm surprised didn't do any damage to even the steelies...but I'm sure my struts and shocks don't like it one bit.

The steel is probably going to start stretching a lot now...but you can always try, haha.

Or go to the junkyard and find another wheel.

I thought about that, or just getting a new steelie, but everyone who told me they would check their work to see if they have any in stock are being douchebags and not getting back to me.

Ouch. Speaking of that, I probably should take all three of those items out. I wonder if I can even get the stock jack under there...

My sub box is pretty much right in the way...and you have to take out the seats to get it out.

So maybe it's time to take that **** out...I have AAA, they can flat-bed me if I need it...

All I'm saying is I'm glad that I didn't have nice wheels on my car. About to just take the hubcaps off lol. And when I had to get a new rear tire, the guy even mentioned something about insurance on the steelie because it looks like I hit a lot of ****. He was right, lol.

Yup, haven't gotten around to buying rims, and that probably wont happen for another year, despite how much everyone on mifbody complains haha. I do like the look of steelies, though, especially with my car, keeps it more low-profile. And the hubcaps are noisy, so less of that.

Yeah I was going to say, they are so rattly. And I was going to buy wheels with my taxes but I realized that would be the dumbest thing ever. Because if I did hit another pothole, I'd be fucked. So I'll keep my steelies lol.

Yeah...that's the one thing that worries me...cause driving around Royal Oak, Detroit, Flint and Auburn Hills, it's dangerous.

Have you checked with Schramm Auto Parts (248-673-5700) in Pontiac? They handle only gm parts there. I bet they will have a wheel for you. Give em a try.
