Pic of the week 3/24/14

Not bike related, but worth sharing.
This Range Rover came into the shop this morning.

The tire was fairly new. You can see where the lug nuts were left loose and eventually fell off. The wheel was just suspended in the front bumper.

It does look rather hungry

I guess the Rover thought it was a donut spare?

What the heck...lol?

It's hard to tell, but is it off the Rover (wheel looks similar to those on the Rover in the shot)?

If it came off a vehicle in front...lucky it was that low and not bouncing up toward the windshield

I'm sure there's a funny in there about Brits and their bangers too...LOL.

The wheel is off a Chevy or Ford.
The tire is fairly new. The lugs were left loose and eventually fell off.

The Rover owner saw the wheel come off the truck in front of her, but had no where to go and ingested the wheel.
.
The truck owner should have felt a vibration or heard a noise.

Unless it was the trucks spare tire that was mounted under the bed?

She was lucky it didn't bounce and come through the windshield.

Unless it was the trucks spare tire that was mounted under the bed?

It was a service wheel.
All the lug nut holes were wallered out.
It is a GM wheel, BTW.
