Or the car broke them and they have NO insurance. Lots of people around here like that (especially with Cadillacs and big hoopdy cars with huge rims).

Good luck with your repairs and in dealing with the insurance. I hope it all comes out well!

Why are your wheel wells sprayed white?

At least you are okay and the car is not that badly damaged.
