I have been living in manhattan for the last 20 yrs and I am very much aware of potholes to the point that I'm tired of going around them. So I just go throughout them but I have 18" and that's not as bad as the 19" rims.
I hope Bloomberg is reading this... It's shameful for NY to have so many bad roads! Stop calling ny "the capital of the world" until we get normal roads to drive on!! It's understandable the challenge but enough of this underdeveloped-world kind of roads!
Ok, I feel better now...
By the way, this afternoon I saw a rare good looking LP 4gs moving on amsterdam ave near the Lincoln center. I wonder who might that be...

While visiting my parents in Manhattan, I slightly bent my F Sport rim. Now these Jersey guys want to charge me $120 to fix a bend you can hardly see. My air pressure never went down and my car rides the same, so I know my bend is just cosmetic. This is the reason why I will never do 20"'s as long as I will drive to NYC.

If it had a vinyl black front bumper and red sox plates could have been me. The roads are really bad, I thought Boston roads were bad, NY tops the list. Car was just washed and cleaned as well as the wheels coming back I averaged 21mpg a little better coming back. Here is a pic of the tire the hit the pothole.

Hey folks, out of curiousity, can't you get the city or state to cover the repairs? In Canada we can file for them to cover repairs caused by potholes. I've never done it myself, but my dad did successfully a few years back. Or maybe the process is there but it's just too much of a pain?

It's too long of a process, but I would put a fight for better roads. As now it's brutal...
Bigblack06, if that was you, you passed me (obsidian) while I was making a right on 66th street. I slowed down because I saw a beautiful shiny clean modern looking car through the rear view mirror... Small world.

The process in Canada is a bit drawn out, but my dad got paid in 2-3 months.
Not sure it would classify as suing the city in either case or cost you any money out of pocket though. Maybe the process in the US is that different.
Understood everyone else's comments about it being a pain in the butt/drawn out process.

"Sue" the city?
