What do I think?? I think that you need to watch the road LOL (I did a U turn once and ran outta road ended up nailing the curb and bending a rim so bad my car shook like there was my own private earthquake LOL)

lol thats ****ty, I think I amy have bent a tie rod too, I was going 50 when I smacked it. After I hit it i though my tire poped, so I gave the car a shake test, it was fine. After i got off the ram and under the overpass i pulled over and looked at it, jumped back in and started to go with the flow of traffic and when i get over 65 the front end has a nasty shake. Hopefully its the rim all fu3ked up not the tie rod. I wanted to sell the car in two weeks, [:@] now i have to buy a new rim.

I did that once in my old alero... Thank god it had hubcaps and it just scratched that. My new alero on the other hand has nice rims... I go no where near curbs. So far the Mitsu hasn't hit one yet either.
