ive had a few of those you have to take pics of the actual pot hole,location. your wheel and the estimate of repair or replace to city hall it takes awhile but they will will eventualy reinburst you thats a street ordinance law or something like that also i have a guy off the 91. close to i would say riverside, corona that can fix and repolish the wheel for you...

That sucks man. I had the same thing happen to me at Camp Pendleton in the wife's Vibe. Wasn't going to try and file a claim with the Marine Corps, but since I jacked up both of the right side wheels, I got Discount Tire to give me a brand new tire (that's why you get the insurance from them) and then I got them to give me a deal on 4 new rims for the wife's car (but that's cause I spend a lot of money there on the Camaro too). Also bent a tie rod. crap.
