Today (Saturday 13/02), heading over the Gateway Bridge I hit a piece of metal tubing or something at about 60kph or so, couldn't avoid it as it was in the far right lane and I had nowhere to go.
Fast forward a couple of hours on our way back from Springbrook and I'd not long merged onto the highway from Nerang when the steering started to shudder. Then, I felt and saw the front left drop a few cm and I smell rubber. You can probably guess what I said next.
I managed to pull over into a spot between the highway and the next merging lane, so I'm surrounded by 6 lanes of traffic. Luckily the a TMU guy came along and helped change to the space-saver.
I'll stick some pics up of the wheel later tonight but suffice to say, we're lucky (partner, baby and myself in the car).
