So last night we were coming home from a party and my friend was letting his brother drive because he was the only one sober and his brother decided to try and show off in the rain and he doesnt really drive the thirdgens. He lost control fishtailed did a 180 and drove onto someones lawn and cracked the driver rear rim. It stills holds air but is missing a large chunk on the outer portion. Im gunna go for a walk through the neighborhood and look for the missing chunk. Suggestions guys? Ill try to get a picture idk if its fixable. Iroc rim. Anyone have one for cheap? Hes on my firebird rim for now.

Party on a Sunday night? No one works/goes to school any more? Just get a replacement rim and check the suspension and undercarriage...rim might be the least of your problems. |

So? The rear uses an axle shaft inside of the housing. If that's bent, it could be chewing up the bearings or the gears in the diff. |
