Curb Hopping Does Not Work Too Well In a Yaris...
So my car this morning, at approximately 5:10am, my car decided it wanted to attempt to hop the curb. The result was not so good...
I thought it was just a flat tire on the driver's front, and a bent wheel and flat tire on the passenger front side. Not the case. Both front wheels were bent. Thankfully the tire was still ok, so I had the 3-season tries (Hancook Optimos, bought new this past June) swapped over to the wheels I have for my winter tires. However, my passenger front tire is also tweaked a little. So it looks like I need a new control arm on that side. Placed an order for one, and it's supposed to be overnighted to me and be here tomorrow so I can get it fixed before I need the car this weekend. We'll see what happens. I'll upload pics as soon as I get a chance to edit them. Each file is a little too big to upload at this time.
