about 4mm narrower than the 6 foot wide bridge that I crossed the other day!

I didnt hit the side - a rivet that stuck out hit my front right alloy and made a nasty gouge in my pride and joy.

Consequently I am In need of a 17" VRS Alloy (preferably) or Alloys

If anyone has replaced theirs with aftermarkets or just wants to sell them

my email addy is [email protected]

And yes i am gutted

Worth investigating the possibility of getting your dosh out of that local council, assuming it was a rivet that shouldn't have stuck out.

Potholes causing damage to your car apparently also sometimes are ground for a bit of cash coming your way.

Not tried myself as yet, been fairly lucky with avoiding those for a while due to my change of jobs during Q4 2004

Hope you get it sorted, can imagine you feeling gutted :(
