Well I went today to my local Hibdon Tires Plus store and asked them to look at my tires and tell me what to do... they said that I needed an alignment really really badly, and a rotate and balance to even out the wear on the right front tire. So after all said and done, $122 later, insurance will be paying this b/c it is absolutely from my wreck. The mechanic said that it was def. from the wreck b/c you can tell allignment issues right away. So in the end, insurance will pay and i'll hopefully get new tires (can't just get one, atleast that's what I'm going to tell the insurance company)!

yeah u should be able to retool that into an argument in ur favor and get some brand spanking new tires out of it.

i nearly got into a wreck the other day. i was turning a corner and it was raining and i stepped on the gas to flex that intake and exhaust and next thing i know im spinning in a full 180 trying to countersteer and keep it under control but i ended up coming to a tire screeching halt exactly 1 foot parallel from the curb. would have been a pretty bad situation, tires and wheels would have been toast...not to mention my suspension or possibly the thing rolling over completely.

Goodluck with the Insurance rep... They are a stickler for taking your money and not giving it back (although there are some execptions)

New Tires are a huge plus. Free new tires are even cooler.

Did they charge $120 for an alignment and a rotation?

Glad nothing is bent on the suspension.
