Atlanta Snow/ Ice Storm Accident

[20034RunnerV84x2]

Earlier my 4Runner slid into a curb due to someone pulling out in front of me on ice. I had to leave my 4Runner in a church parking lot overnight because there are hills all around it and I couldn't get it out (03 SR5 V8 2WD) there were like 6 million vehicles on the road yesterday because everyone left work, schools let out and businesses closed all at the same time. If they would have staggered it I don't think it would be so bad. After sliding into the curb both my drivers side front & rear rims are bent extremely bad to the point where I can't drive it and I don't have the money to repair them or replace them. Looks like my truck isn't going anywhere until Feb. 19th when I get payed. Anyone want to be nice enough and let me pick up your stock SR5/ Sport rims and pay you as soon as I get payed? I'll need some with tires because I have the 16" steelies right now and the tires wouldn't fit. I hate ice >.<

Not to be a downer, but if you jacked your rims that badly it's likely that's not all you did.

X2 I'd expect suspension damage

I'm already expecting it. What a pain in the ass. Just to go to the store to get some food because we had none at the house (why I'm broke now) could be costing me thousands now. Ugh....

pics of the wheels?

do they still hold air?
if so, drive it.

OP, sorry to hear that.

I will be selling my stock rims soon but not until I gather all my lift kit parts, may not be for another month :-/ I would say suspension too but apparently my XREAS is leaking (from apparently reputable shop) so I don't know how good it will be...although I haven't noticed any leaks myself.

PM me and keep me updated, would be willing to help you out if I can. If you can wait a month with a spare car you might be in luck.

check the bearings and axles for smooth and straight turning
the smallest crinkle in the axle near the wheel end can be trouble
(happened to me, rwd vehicle not a 4R)
