it may be worth contacting suppliers of these wheels to see if they have an ex display wheel that they will sell cheap.

 

Take a pic of the said pothole, contact the council and get them to pay for the wheel.
Have known a few people who have done this and have got their wheels replaced on the council.
Worth a try.

 

Definatly worth a try, but im sure the pot hole has to e a certain size before they do anything

 

i have one white 17"inch rim inovit redline brand new



drop me a pm

 

is it me or is there just loads of massive potholes everywere at the moment.around our area the roads are shocking.must be something to do with all the wheather we have been having.

 

CLAIMS DIRECT MATE. JUST SUE THEM....

 

pics.....

 

send them to the council, or it maybe the highways agency you have to contact, you should have sufficient evidence there to claim.

 

You might aswell make injury claims while your at it . 4grand easy...

 

bloody hell thats shocking,it looks more like a picture of the moon than a road surface.i'm glad my cars off the road for now.

 

ive done all that for the council and what happened nothing they filled the pot holes but no conpensation the roads are 5hite at the min even the m20 is crap make me happy i didnt go to 18" wheels

 

definate claim there mate i think it has to be a minimum of 40 mm deep which that is. get on the phone.

 

check your suspension then take them to the cleeners

 

I noticed this too, i went for a drive the other day and the road was absolutely covered in holes where the wearing course of the tarmac had come away. Probably down to the frost getting underneath and then lifting the tarmac as it gets warmer.

i'd say that pot-hole big enough.........look at the wheel theres loads of (new) pot-holes round where i live must be the snow/salt?????

 

Not only that mate but someone has attempted to repair where its sunk around the gully. Definately worth a try IMO.

 

snow ruins roads... water gets in the cracks freezes and expands making the hole/crack bigger and bigger.
