erm can someone please tell me the worst case and minor senarios of hitting a kerb with your front right wheel.
visited a mate and went to turn right sort of slid and hit the kerb, caused minor kerbing but i had a look and drive and couldnt find any bubbles in the tyre wall, seems to drive in a straight line (no pulling, a bit to right but i have always had this since i bought it). was goin about 10mph
wat about suspension? or beams behind wheel, etc.
im silly i no, havent even driven it for 4 days.
thanks 
sorry for essay

10mph should be fine really
if you clobber one at about 45, it bends the bottom arm and the suspension strut leaks
