retard who knows nothing about cars here. Noticed this today. Is it cool to keep driving like this?
>>15882458
Ya probably
>>15882458
maybe
>>15882458
Yes if you remove the locking nut and the other one beside it to balance out the missing weight.
>>15882458
nope
as long as the tire is holding air then it's not catastrophic, might unbalance the wheel and cause vibrations though and if you hit another curb or bump wrong then it could unseat the tire
you should get it fixed but it's not an emergency
>>15882491
that's a fucking chrysler logo you mong
>>15882458
Yeah I wouldn't drive another mile on that.
nope, absolutely not. hit a curb and you'll have more air in your colon than your tire.
>>15882458
lol what the fuck did you do nigger
>>15882521
detroit pot-holes my man
>alloys
Steelies4lyf, niggers
>>15882458
>retard who knows nothing
Yup, you're a retard for sure.
>guys I accidentally cut 5 inch off my condom and now it barely covers the tip, is it still safe to fuck?
>>15882554
That's obviously a wheel, not a condom you retard. And here I thought /o/ might know something about cars..
>>15882493
>might unbalance the wheel and cause vibrations
>might
I had a chip in my hubcap that wasn't more than half that size, and the vibrations were VERY obvious. Took the caps off and it's been solid since. A chunk that big is going to feel like driving on gravel.

answer my question asshole, vitamin V only lasts so long.
OP here. I remember I hit a really bad pot-hole a month ago that I was pretty sure would have done some sort of damage. But no lights came on so I assumed it was fine. But now that some other anon's mention it I did notice that when I get going over 65-70 miles an hour it does get really bumpy. I figured I would just have them look at it next time I got an oil change..
anyway, I've probably been driving like this for a month lel
>>15882458
>Noticed this today
Translation: I got blackout drunk last night and decided to drive home.
>>15882601
nah I think it's been like this for awhile. its not on the driver side so I never really look at that wheel
>>15882591
Replace the wheel. It's done. Put your spare on if you can't get it replaced soon.
>>15882566
My caps are filled with chips, can’t feel shit.
>>15882650
Drive faster. In my case the vibrations started at ~80km/h. I couldn't go above 120. Since taking them off I've been stable at 150.
>>15882663
>km
You are probably feeling vibrations because you drive a shitbucket yuropoor car
>>15882666
Chevrolet has been great ever since they moved to Canada, after Canada moved to Europe.
>>15882663
Ive gone up to 120, no dice. Going faster just makes the steering unresponsive because its an old shitbox with over 400k on the clock.
Its okay to drive like that, but you should just get it replaced.
By "okay to drive" , I mean that its alright but you have a large chance of the wheel fucking up and causing an accident.
Wheels are important, so fix it.
>>15882458
yes
>>15882591
>But no lights came on so I assumed it was fine.
You're going to get swelling in that area followed by a blow out. Don't be a faggot, get it fixed. It's a safety concern for you and other drivers.
>>15882458
Change it to the spare if you can, if not find a friend who knows how to. I wouldn't drive on that at all. If you have to drive on it, make sure it's straight to a tire shop.
>>15882591
>next time I got an oil change
what the fuck, comrade?
>>15882554
> small piece of wheel == 5" of condom
Must be a pretty huge condom lol
>>15882458
how the fuck is that still holding air
>>15882458
Listen, don't come to /o/ with car questions, no one here knows anything about them. Go to a car enthusiast forum or your local tyre shop.
>>15882529
Steel wheels are the real deal
>>15882566
>plastic wheel covers cause vibrations
Eurocucks are this fucking stupid.
>>15882489
lol
>>15882458
You should stress test it with every pothole you find. Just to make sure.

>>15882609
>I think it's been like this for a while
has it or hasn't it? this isn't the type of shit that you don't really remember happening
>>15882458
think about using a defective condom ?
does that help op
you're not going to get a new tire on that wheel just do you know
>>15888668
