Road works beware with low profile tyres
I have 19" rims on my 325i which both fronts have dents I recently discovered.
I remember the exact location of where this occurred. Adelaide has a lot of road works underway ATM. The morons laying the road left approx a 2" height difference after an intersection which I hit without warning at 60kph after leaving a read light. So not speeding at all. On impact I thought that had to cause damage so pulled over to check. I saw no obvious damage so didn't think anymore of it. the next day they put in a fillet so "fixed" the problem. Recently I've had to pump up my front left on a weekly basis with no obvious puncture. I took it to a tyre centre to find both front rims dented on the inside where I could not see. I immediately knew what had happened. It was the only impact I had had. But 12 months earlier. Now I tried to get this compensated but the company refuses to recognise the problem. I'm now up for 2 new rims. Rolling them is pointless if at all possible? Is this worth trying to claim under insurance? Anyone had any similar issues? |
