    POLO vs a ROCK

    I was traveling behind a hilux that had seen a rockmelon sized solid rock and ran straight over it.
    This however didnt have an effect on the rock...........then as ive seen it ive gone to swerve but it was too late, both the front left tyre and rear ran straight over it at approx 80kph.

    I pulled over and checked both tyres, the front appears to remain undamaged but the rear tyre was pinched between the rock and the rim wall and has created a decent sized blister in the sidewall......

    what i found most amusing was i was on my way to pick up brand new tyres,

    I picked up the new set of tyres for $220 all together, they are 195/55 r15 that will fit standard comfortline rims...
