bugger bugger. just ran over a brick in the road. Put a nice dint in my front left allow and taken a chunk out of the tyre (remarkably not popped it though!) also developed a blister in the back left tyre.

Need to find somewhere that referbs alloys and sells my tyres quick smart. 225/18/35!! ANyone got any ideas. Preferably around the blackpool area. Not even sure if the car is safe to drive!

BKS, join the club. i hit a brick a couple of weeks ago which cracked my alloy on the inside of the rim, letting the air out, and destroyed my tyre. luckily, montys wheels and tyres in Iver, Bucks, sourced me an excellent condition 2nd hand one. 1 week later i found a screw on the side wall of the new tyre, doh!!! so another new tyre. this time from style dynamix, hayes, mddx. best of luck.

Whats pointless, or wrong in fact, with that piece of advise? Learn to drive seems quite a valid and constructive statement in the circumstances.

do not drive around with your eyes closed seriously how could u not see a brick?

get some 15" alloys with a higher profile- the car might look crap but at least you can drive over most stuff without causing any damage at all.

Come round a bend,car on the other side of the road,brick in the road.What do you do,hit the car or run over the brick?No contest.
As for saying if you were driving slower you would be able to slow down,how many people ALWAYS drive slow enough to avoid any potential incident?The roads would be congested with people doing 10mph.

no get a less ridiculous alloy/tyre comb then you'll be OK.
