OUCH! As seen at Poor Freddies Tire Center in Jamaica NY
Check what a New York City pothole can do to an 18 AMG!

Wow.
Just wow.
That is an expensive pothole. Out here people sue the City over such things -- after they climb out of the pothole.
Hopefully the owner had good insurance.
FWIW I like the avatar.
Take care and enjoy the ride,
Greg

looking at that wheel I have to wonder what kind of condition is the car in ..... has it been washed since it was first picked up at the dealership

I'm switching to a set of staggered Rial Rims for my 420sel. The rears are 9x16 ET11 which means its getting a bit tight in there. I'm planning on going to 60 or 55 aspect ratio but I'm not sure about the width. Would 225 or 235 work?
