    So driving home today after a night out with some friends, im coming out of the midtown tunnel from Manhattan, they decided to changed the traffic pattern, not knowing this ahead of time I took the turn as usual and caught the curve and rashed the living shit out of front and rear drivers side rims, man im gonna be pissed when I get up tommorow.

    Normally ide be really bummed out but I have the highest expectations from USW, ill have to send one rim back at a time for repair and leave the car jacked on jack stands until both are repaired.

    Biz help me out brotha!!!!

    That's a bummer Tony. I'm sure USW can make em look like it never happened.

    (you don't own 2 jack stands to send them both at the same time?)

    Just leave it on the stands with no wheels? My understanding is that the earthquake that is going to hit NY isn't going to be one of the small ones we have out here.

    Thanks guys just talked to Al and he said to just ship them back and they will take care of it, kick ass vendor man.

    Now to go pull them off. I think im just going to ship both back at the same time and leave it on jackstands, screw it.

    Soooooooooooooo sorry Tony.

    But yea, like Dave said, let it sit on the jack stand without a tire. No harm in that.

    Oh that sucks Tony. Ya know, I think the best thing you can do at this point is to let me ship you my foosesesesessss (that way you can scoot around), you ship out all four and I'll make sure that Bis does a perfect color match on the repairs...........ya that's it. Hell, I'll even make sure they run true and all. :friends:

    extra hoops... now all you need is extra centers and your DRs would match! It doesn't have to look perfect at the track, you could probably knock off the sharp edges on the damaged ones with a file.
