Fuuuuuuuuuck nope....we have a lot of weirdly uneven roads here....like everything looks fine...next minute....rollercoaster like dip and your stomach is in your throat

Sad thing was county was just out laying down steel plates over the deep ones and I got screwed by a small one hidden behind a speed decreaser bump

6 of them were from sharp edges in construction zones 

This time I have 1 bent rim and 2 flat tires and only one doughnut .... I think I'm going to buy 3 more spares

i'm not surprised. you live on the east side of the state right? the roads are even worse over there than here and it seems like there is construction EVERYWHERE. now i'm not sure how this really works in most places but i do know that here, if you mess up your vehicle on a pothole or construction site, you can petition the city to pay for your repairs. doesn't always work but i've known a few people that it has worked for.

I'm already filing a claim since this happened on an off ramp near 696

I’m very good at avoiding them.

 

i guess it’s a result of growing up in and owning Mustangs.

 

you should try to avoid them more often. 

Are mustangs low riders with more than 6" clarence? 

Currently I had to dodge a pothole that was 3' wide 2' deep and it's a constant dodging

Probably less, because ITS A FUCKING MUSTANG.

im about to go measure the ground clearance of my Foxbody with 100% stock suspension and wheels. Tires are 245 rather than stock 225 so if anything it’ll sit higher.

 

ANYWAY. I know your area is bad, philly gets a similar rep. I’ve seen countless cars pulled over with broken wheels. Me? Never even had a flat from a pothole.

Doesn't help these roads haven't seen a facelift in 10 years
