well as the tread states you can emagian something happend with a damn old lady. Well i was on my way to work and just logged a few runs and was headed to work when all of asudden a old lady in this big town car barley poking her head over the dash pulls out in front of me about 20feet. Im was doing only about 40 but i slammed on the brakes and started to skid so i let up a little and knew i wasnt going to stop in time so i had to yank the wheel to the left and BAM!!! i hit a damn storm drain. long story short, both driver side rims are bent and tires are missing chuncks on the side wall.
But I do have good news. Parents said they would buy me new rims and tires if I pay them back after i graduate college(14months). So my question is what are some good rims and tire packages. 16s-18s I found these http://www.wheelmax.com/Specials/specials.html scroll down to BSA 264. not bad for 18s and tires. And they look diffrent from everything ive seen. Im really looking for some 99 GSX 10spoke rims but they are like $155 a piece for just the rims. Any suggestions on rims would be appreciated.

heres a story for you....
my 2nd day out driving ever, i was goin about 45 on the road, and i went through a 4 way intersection while it was green. but, an 86 year old woman, thought she didnt have to check any oncomming traffic before making a right turn on red! so, i was going through, she made the turn, and mind you that she went directly across 2 lanes during this turn. so, i jammed my brakes, hit her on the driver side, crunched the door and the side. she kept driving!!!! she finally stopped after about maybe 50 ft and she didnt even know what happened. i had a great 2nd day out driving lol
and this wasnt in my car. it was a driving teacher's car hehe

oh yeah i remember the drivng school cars with the extra brakes.. i was in a saturn when i took it though. i remember the first lesson, after we get out of the driveway im just going through my neiborhood at 25 and all a sudden the car comes to a screeching halt.. im all like wtf? and my intructor says see i have the power, now dont make me use it again.. pissed me the heck off what a ahole...
anyhow i agree that old peeps should have to take some sort of test but i think it should be something like a road test every 2 years.. kinda like echeck.. only checking driver compitance rather than smog hah

On my first day with my lisense I was driving from my friends house home on the highway doing 70 and a deer fucking runs in the road and manages to tbone me and it totaly fucks up my MPV. Deer are fucking stupid I hate them. Sorry to hear about you rims. Almost every day I almost get hit or hit some old person.

I think 5Zigen copses are the best....basically anything in hypderblack with a chrome lip is awesome. Grey rims are pretty neat too. dont go all chromy though.
