Pot Hole + Broken 'Wheel = New wheels!!

As I stated on another
Thread I broke a wheel on a pot hole, and when i went to the dealer, the wheel was $799.00 plus the tire, $289.00. So I made my Inshurence reclamation, and got 4 wheels and tires for less than that yay!! Also whitedealershiprice (my brother) got me a new wheel on ebay for $99.00, I only have to pay him for it plus the shipping (I didn't think the vendor would ship directly to Puerto Rico.

so here are my New wheels.

They are Indy Sport 17" (they are lighter and cheaper than the 18") plus in the track they always have good used 17" tires that they sell cheap for auto X wanabees like myself.

Thanks guys,

Sorry about the picture, It's my Phone nota real camera. I left my real camera in St. Vincent Island With all the pictures from our vacation :-(

hondasR4kids: You are right, it will be up hill, but I made a reclamation with the city and aparently, they will pay (Cuando se les de la gana!) in about 8 to 10 months.
