    hmmmmm, seems like maybe a bit more tire sidewall could/would have helped deflect and not cause any damage.

    I have to agree. That's why I don't want to run even 22's.

    Man that sucks! Just those 2 wheels were hurt? If you know where it was, looks like maybe the same Ohio grown pothole, you could try to get the state or city you were in to pay for it. All depends where it happened.

    Good luck!

    I feel for ya man. Yes, chances are sidewall would definitely help and I'm with ekaz, I wouldn't run much larger than 20 for that reason... but Saturday I blew out a tire on a pothole that was underwater and invisible, bent the stock 16" wheel (on my Cutlass) and destroyed the sidewall. Then Tuesday I blew out the spare on a pothole, completely annihilated the donut rim and turned it into a taco. I can't tell from the pic - is your at least still holding air?

    LOL... would be interesting to compare notes between my second flat and yours, I think I may give you a run for your money on that record I think I may have invented a language :-)

    That's too bad!

    Sorry for your bad luck! We have pot holes on our streets in Windsor that would break one of those rims in half. I saw a Daytona rip the chin spoiler off from a pot hole the other day. That rim can be repaired.
