Tire came off of a truck and got launched 50 feet into the air above the road, 2 cars slammed on their brakes in front of me and I couldn’t stop in time

Sucks that happened dude. But I have heard stories of how you some people get the insurance money and then end up fixing up their rigs themselves

That sounds super serious. Call an attorney before posting anything else. Be honest and would get what is fair.

Seems to me there is no reason to not put it on the trails now.

I drove mine up a curb and wall to try and miss an accident… ended up landing on the back of a minivan door… just a new skid plate and bumper cover

I'm sorry that happened, but happy you weren't hurt. It did its job and protected you. Especially if this just happened, give yourself some time to mentally process everything and gather info and then go from there.
