Re: Bad Luck or Shady Deal?

Bummer on that deal.

As for why he spun out, these are my thoughts on possible causes. The car looks substantially lowered, that tends to screw up suspention geometry as well as make it easy to lift wheels off the ground. If the car wasn't properly aligned after the lowering, having a wheel lose grip to counter act the forces of the other improperly aligned wheels = spin. In this case I'm thinking excessive toe in, on the rear, causing the tires to run hot, blowing one before the other, then the surviving one sends you around. With out seeing the tires I can't say for sure. Did you by chance take a look at them? I would understand if you didn't. It would be easy to tell, the outside shoulder of the tire would be worn worse than the inside.
