The side view where you see the wheel just motoring away is pretty funny.

Good tip about inspection both inside and outside of the wheel.

Yikes.

LOL - i don't think they take the damage to the car caused by driving on three wheels into account when they say that. i wonder how much it'll cost to fix that S2K.

I would guestimate over a grand, if done properly. Otherwise, if just a button up to get back on the road, not so much. Sucks either way
