Last week on the Belt Pkwy I hit that huge pothole at 70mph. The huge hole is in the left lane close to the Knapp St exit. I bent my back 17"rim and caught a flat because of that. The tire shop banged the bent rim out, but I still feel the bent with a vibration coming from that rim. I need a used GS 17" rim. PM me.

I never heard anybody mention Belt Parkway as the Belt Expressway..anyway what exactly were you? I know there is an annoying dip on the right and middle lanes right after 14th Ave exit on the eastbound side. It makes the whole car dip and bounce back. Very annoying.

Hope everything works out for you.
Are you referring to exit #4? If you are, I know exactly where that is!

Actually, the pothole is on the side going towards Verrazano Bridge. The exit where the pothole was located is the new exit with Home Depot, Target and all the other new stores.
