Michigan Potholes

This winter has really paid a toll on the Michigan roads.

Pothole vs My MCS



Dropped it off at the dealer an hour after it happened.
They have the rim and tire in stock. So hopefully I'll get it back tomorrow.
I'm glad I decided to pay for the wheel / tire plan, cause I'd be out a lot of dough.

Edit:
This happened near Great Lake Crossing Mall. Headed on I-75 Southbound, between Baldwin and Lapeer, right lane.
Stay clear!!! It's a friggin monster of a pothole.

I can feel your pain MPIIIman ! Last night I was on my way to Great Lakes Crossing driving east on Brown Rd. The turnlane into southbound Joselyn Rd at the stop light was scattered with potholes Big enough to swallow a Mini ! I asked my wife if this is a third world country or the Motor City This is a disgrace
