Pittuf 0 Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 For a year and a half i had the venoms on my car and I think my dad managed to curb them once when moving the VR to get his own car off the drive. !sad I said to him on Thursday when we walked past it on the way back from circuit traing...."Dad you have to be soooo much more carefull now when driving the car.....stay well away from the curbs because the new wheels stick out sooo much more than the old ones" He takes the keys from my room this morning.....I think, I should remind him to be carefull.....but don't.He comes back in looking really bad &| throws the keys on my bed and says those dreaded words....."I'm really sorry" x) Nearly half the rear wheel and abit of the front are scuffed to fcuk aaaarrrrrgggghhhh ~ Man I'm so pi$$ed off right now. !sad Link to post Share on other sites

bazz780 0 Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 i remember one time when i had brand new multispokes fitted to my 1.8GL, dad borrowed the car later that day and curbed the passenger wheel 360 degrees round, i told him what he'd done and he felt upset that id pulled him up for it, i then felt bad and since then never bothered about kerbings on wheels, it can be refurbed but the way i must av made my dad feel cannot be undone, i guess if parents do it then you gota accept it, but if a mate or brother/sister did it ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHH Link to post Share on other sites
