LiamGTR Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 (edited) On my way to the Opticians today, all of a sudden.....'THUD!'..... "Fcuk" ....Pothole, that I completely missed and it must have been a Fcuking big one because it made a massive thud when I hit it. I now have a steering wheel wobble at 50mph. Have I buckled/dinted/bent my alloys? Edited February 24, 2010 by LiamGTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchkev Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 more than likely knocked the tracking out boss - wold also check the weights are still on the alloy, could have knocked the balencing out aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KNITERIDER Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Better be more aware if your lowering especially 60mm you'd have wrecked the shock too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawdreamer Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Buckled wheel. +1 done that twice now and you'd be shocked just how little a buckle is required to cause your woes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger9991 Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Buckled wheel. +1 done that twice now and you'd be shocked just how little a buckle is required to cause your woes Get them to balance the wheels all round! that was my problem!!!

I'm surprised you'd want to claim from the council. Wouldn't your new benefactor just buy you a new set of wheels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
