    I was in a small shopping center driving towards the street when out of the corner of my eye a parked BMW started backing up, I accelerated to get out of the way (and honked) but it caught my tire... dammm.. I should just let him get my rock sliders.....

    In any case, we were both cool. He is paying for a new rim.

    My Wheel....

    His bumper

    Check your wheel bearing seal on that side for leakage in a few days.

    he was stressing out that I would call the police. His drivers license was cut in half and put together with tape.. I did not call the police since the damage seems so minor. In any case, now I need to go pick up my wheel and get my tire mounted. I am glad that no one got hurt.
