Hi everyone,
My name is Bryan :inoutgay: ive had my Infiniti for the last three years. I bought my car used from Cerritos infiniti in ca. About a year ago i was able to get some used lm gt4 rims 19inch rims from a woman who lost her husband to cancer for cheap. :tisk: I guess she wanted to get rid of alot things that belonged to him. i got the full set with tires for cheap. dirt cheap. Anyways fast forward a couple months i am comfortable with the car drive with it occasionally without vsc turned off, someone cuts me off i could not control it and i didnt have vsc turned on and i lost control. my passanger rear wheel slapped the curb. i ruined my wheel and am just finished up rebuilding suspension. :facepalm: i have replace the control arm(it was crakced), radius rod(twisted), lateral arm(bent), and the knuckle(cracked). my rear sub frame was slightly tweaked we managed to fix it temporarily since i know it has to be replaced eventually. everything is looking positive. ill post pictures of the old parts in a bit. This is how she sits now.

I folded a right rear wheel like that with a curb also. Hopefully you get her all fixed up nice.

Welcome aboard, Bryan!
Those curbs always seem to pop up precisely when you don't want them to.

That's a nice coupe! Good luck on getting everything permanently fixed.
