Did you have your rear Progress Sway Bar installed at the time ?

Just the tire and rim, or is there more damage to the suspension?
I had done a similar type thing with my Suzi, spun around into a curb, and bent the axle. Hope that's not the case with you!

That stinks teech...sorry to hear that. Hope it's nothing too serious...is it still driveable? Hope you weren't hurt.

Nah...nothing serious. Just a mean case of curb rash, luckly.

No sway bar either...might have saved my rim. I was on my way to work, so I didn't have time for the grand inspection. I don't think its really bent though. Just scraped to death.

What rims do you have? Stock?

Wait until you find out what GM wants for a rim!!

That just may be the excuse you need to get the aftermarket rims you wanted!

They're the stock 17''s (painted or at least they were before today).

I can't get aftermarket rims because I got one of those things that keeps you getting rims installed...but I forget the name of it...oh yeah, wife.

I have a hard time justifying big buys for the car....*sigh*

Don't cry for me....Im already dead
