ahhhhh!!! No way man, sorry to see that. But most of your ride is still in good shape, bumps and bruises are to be expected, I've learned.

I thought the front seats weighed 500lbs each??

Great job on the seats!

Some people say the Sportmax wheels will crack on the first pothole but mine haven't and I attribute it to the fact that they weigh like 50lbs each...

Weight has nothing to do with that (sources... Being a M.E.)

However, my SSR's had hit about 50 potholes in the last year, the roads got worse and worse, this is the first one I hit going 35-40 that was a 3" deep pothole that went immediately to the road with no incline. I think a cast wheel would of been in pieces.

So whatever life will go on... haha.

If you wanna see some real pot holes come to Houston,Tx. I have been looking for some wheels for my 1995 SC400. On almost every craig's list posting the wheels are bent and don't hold air. Who the hell want's to buy some cracked *** wheels. Espically if they're b.s. wheels. C'mon people. LOL!
