i like the wheels there different and not following the deep dish trend and they hold the road quite well just not so much in the snow

You numpty, how did you do that!

Deep dish trend?!?! Have you seen the dish on them banded steelies?

ssshhhhh no one really knows but I've had em on for a few days before the snow the car handled superb but when i saw the severe weather warnings i opted for the tears

what happened was i was driving(skiing) on the motorway and let off the accelerator whilst going down hill the car swung one way and whilst trying to correct it spun the other way and hit the centre barrier at 90 degrees good job i was only doing twenty or so

That looks like very minor damage considering the sideways-ness

funnily enough because my cars so low the bumper went under the barrier hence the wing/light/indicator getting caved in
