Can't believe it, just fitted 4 brand new Goodyear tyres and on my way to play 5-a-sides at lunch and CRUNCH! Never saw the FUKC OFF kerb in the turn in to the car park.

Result is a big tear in my new tyre sidewall and a big dent in my Speedline alloys.

Am i pi$$ed - you'd better believe it. Was I going into tackles a bit harder than usual - yes, but I have apologised to everyone concerned.

Does anyone know how much a new 17" RB5 Speeline will set me back ??

Just how much damage can be repaired on alloys ??

Thanks,
Stefan

Don't know if it's sold yet but one was for sale a while ago here http://www.scoobynet.co.uk/bbs/threa...ThreadID=39479

It's damaged as well by the sound of it but not as bad as your's sounds!

Sorry Ozzy

Sold the RB5 alloy a couple of weeks ago. When I had to replace one back in 1999 when the RB5 I had was only days old, it cost £155 +vat with about a four week lead time!
