****** annoying f***ing curbs..... had wheels a year an been so carefull with them. Yet one of the bstrds jumped out on me last night and got my rim
Lucky for me @ajax1976 sold me a spare and couldnt of arrived at a better time.

Although come to think of it. Me buying that might have jynxed me!

i have a feeling its something to do with being on this forum.

1. curbed wheel after buying a spare of ajax
2. posted on a thread about glove box repairs for the dodgy hinges, about how i went about it, and mine fkin broke again a day later.

something is jinxing me!!!!!!!

I had a set of perfect staggered style 32's on my e39, it was peeing down I had to reverse round a junction with everyone screaming in the car and the windows steaming up and I felt that sinking feeling as I scrubbed the rear alloy across the curb on my side, ripped into the rim protector on the tyre too, I didn't speak for the rest of the trip and most the evening as I was so pee'd off lol!

Yes I had them they do the job only draw back is if you have a puncture repair, they will not refit them also if you have a new tyres fitted.
