Aftermath of my GF driving...lol (w/ pics)
Its about 1:30pm on Saturday and were comming home from shopping
thank god..So were making a left into the front enterance of the neighborhood its not sharp its actually a pretty wide turn about 3 lanes worth of road and shes doing about 50mph....
I feel the car start to slide we do a left 180 than a right 180, the tc hits the curb sideways, hops the curb and were sitting on the sidewalk, i get out real quick and see if anything is damaged hop back in and tell her to go home.. The security gard just watched and the person driving in front of us kept going, I occasionally hit this turn a little excessively in MY car because i dnt have stock suspension and i have vsc to keep my butt planted lol
On to the pics!
Heres the curb the car went up on and hit, you can see the tire marks
(my dash is pita to keep lint off)

The only damage, luckily! ...just bought a brand new wheel off GreyhoundTC on the forums today.
(now i have a souviner
)

Threw this sexy beast on! ...eventhough shes not even driving it im teh designated driver

Is it weird it took putting this wheel on to find out that dish wheels are hot on teh tc

check your alignment and the wheel bearing. my wife hit a curb in her Mazda3 going about 10 mph in a shopping center. chipped her wheel pretty badly. her wheel bearing wore out a couple months later and something bent in the suspension. I cant figure out what she bent, but that side has -0.7 more camber now. Thats after I replaced a bent strut.

I sware when she drives i watch everyone else driving and i watch her driving to the point where if she starts f-ing up i tell her and shes telling me to stfu...
LOL. This thread is fun. I let my GF drive my car more often than I should. Maybe I should stop allowing it. :-/ My only rule has been "NO DRIVE THRU". I can see her rashing my new wheels.
And I must say... that spare wheel on the white looks SICK! Put on three more, slam it, and she can ride hard! Haha.

lol, i think someone did throw all 4 on and snap a pic..i tried to drive it today , everything seems fine lol...seems

on a side note, it looks like im going to be buying her stechs again. because were keeping this beast now
No, no, no. She hasn't curbed them. Not yet. Which is why I shouldn't let her drive my car.
Ya know... I kind of want to sell my S-Tech/Tokico combo so that I can go for coilovers. Hmm...
