I had a wee incident this morning going to work, a dog appeared from a field while I was doing 60mph, I swerved to avoid it and cracked my nearside front wheel off the kerb. Burst sidewall and severely humped alloy wheel!!! Any ideas of a cheap place to buy just one alloy wheel?

My brother hit a cat at 80mph in his Focus, cost him £900, i'd rather save a cat/dog/badger and £700, myself!

When I was standing changing a wheel in the freezing cold at 6 in the morning I certainly felt like hitting the dog!!!

you should check your suspension and tracking etc. as it's most likely been knocked out of alignment.
