Went to TESCO on Western Avenue today in the Eunos to get petrol for tonight's meet. On the way back I decided to head up to Whitchurch as I had 20 minutes spare, and to pop in and see my daughter.

Anyway at the junction I am in the left lane, left indicator on, look right and a big truck is beside me. He pull's off and so do I.

BUT, he's turning left too .

I swerve to avoid him, panic and pull in as he's still moving left and hear the distinctive noise of alloy on curb . Just past the junction I pull into the layby and he's off through the traffic all I can see is a blue canvas and the **** end disappearing in the rain.

So, I have to put the Daisy Eunos wheels on tomorrow but they need two tyres, Sardis Road Tyres are doing me some Falken's then down to Renowheel in the afternoon .

Big dent in the Scoob fund but not as big as the one's in the Enkei's .

 

No way goddamn truckers!! Gutted for you mate, that's not gonna be cheap! Have you priced up a replacement?

 

£198 + VAT each without tyres and they may take some time to arrive as the 14's are as rare as hen's teeth. But I know Renowheel won't be cheap but he's a wizard with Aluminium Alloys.

How much has he quoted you? Mate of mine took a Fiesta wheel to him with more damage than that and the price was very reasonable.

 

That's tomorrow .

 

Not good at all Ian,you must be very annoyed to say the least

 

Gutting I hate that happenning, scratched a rear wheel turning into a similar place, very slow too = what a bummer !

 

 

x spec must have some bargain wheels going

 

 

Not good that Ian bet your tamping buddy..!!

 

Lee, you would not believe how f**ked off I am. I have to take it to Rally Day with the spare wheels . Got the tyres sorted on the spare wheel's though this morning, top deal for two Falken's at Sardis Road, £78 all in .

Off to Renowheel tomorrow with the casualties .

 

similar situ happened to me the other week - sooooo annoying....I was in my daily and NSF caught....problem is wheels are diamond cut so monday its going in and will be without it for 5days!!!.....plus £160... feel for ya fella....stupid lorry driver...

 

Good grief the world has gone mad.

That's terrible Ian, hope you get it all fixed soon

 

Ian I bet you are mate, we all would be the same..

Bloody good price on tyres mind you..

 

Massive praise to the lads at Renowheel, you cannot see the join.

 

Cracking job done there Ian. I think one of mine will be making a visit soon.

 

Highly recommended mate, definetly worth a visit.

 

Cracking job!!!
