I say save some dough and get two stock used rims. This way you can afford to fix the dent.

good advice from pappydan, and Im not gonna be one to say that cuz I've been pulled over and given a ticket countless times, the tickets are few but maxed out my points. I know if ur like me u wont slow down. **** happens tho, u just gotta be more prepared and aware. But it does look like u needed tires anyway, haha, so I donno. Go the cheap route and get some like mine if u want cheap wheels and black
-amen on ur parents not handing u money. If mine were I would be on my R6 right now. Thats gotta wait another month

I think I may just end up getting 2 more stocker 16s and powdercoat these ones black and get some cheapo tires for up front.

Just get cheap ones all around...it doesn't appear that you have INSANE power so just get some cheap all around use tires and run them...you will save alot that way...Toyo proxes are not cheap but just cut some corners if money is tight...i had to do it alot while i was in college...and now that i am out...stuff is looking up...there are my two cents...take it how you will!

At least you learned your lesson for driving fast on loose gravel. We get highschool kids around here that do 80 down dirt or gravel roads and end up rolling out into a field. Take it easy on the loose stuff.
Good to see you didn't roll it and that all is well. I've never heard of the fuel pump shutting off from spinning, They have a sensor that shuts them off during a roll over. Did you have to reset the pump to get it to start? (if not that probably wasn't what happened). Haven't checked on my silvy yet but on must vehicles the reset switch is behind the passenger side kick panel.

And I thought My tires were bald. clearly i was mistaken.

Sorry about your luck! Atleast you still got the gum.

Check the classifieds, I saw a some nnbs 20's with tires for a good price but can't remember how much. It was yesterday I think or the day before. Damn working nights screw you daily memory up!!!
