02603sec Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 man we have potholes like you wouldn't believe. The roads were in good shape before the season. 2006 GT Limited with the 17x7 shaved spokes. Continental all seasons at least 80% of the tread. GF's DD and has bombed 3 tires and bent two rims. I think I'm going to buy up and corner the local supply of these rims, since they bend so easily. well, she bent two on the Miata in summer.

Gire Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Your "girlfriend" should pay more attention to the road she's driving on. Seriously. Less texting and tailgating, more street sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nff Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 also taller ratio tires will give a bit more cushion before breaking things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just up your way around Allentown last weekend and it's much worse there than here in South Central. I mean, I felt like I was driving on the moon:lol:. Some places along 309 and 22 reminded me of Centralia! It's no wonder your rims are bent. Also reassuring to know the spring's "fix-roads" budget is being sucked up by the winter's "salt-and-clear-roads" initiative. Updated parts list since original part-out here.

02603sec Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Yeah 202 in new hope is really bad. Jersey around the main roads and princeton OK PA just instituted a 30 cent a gallon tax to fix roads. Local diesel is 4.60 I. NJ it's 4.10. Some of the big potholes have been filled .. I'm driving the f-250 till then. Just go slow you will hit them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
