Tire bubbles/blowouts and bent rims
 

So this winter has taken a toll on my 2011 Audi A6 that I purchased last year.

Hit a pothole in north NJ(parsippany for any of you that know the area) and damage the tire (bubble in sidewall) and bent rim....about $500 in damage. Oh and I didnt purchase the tire and rim insurance because it was too expensive and I said "what the hell do I need that for?". So I filed a claim with the county and just got my answer back from them denying the claim. No surprise here--bastards. There is a statute in the law that says they are not liable if "they werent aware of the problem" and of course they claimed they were unaware even though they filled the fuckin pothole!

Well just wanted to know if anyone else experienced this(especially this winter in Norht NJ) and if they were ever lucky enough to make a successful claim? Do I have any recourse? Oh btw, I did buy the rim and tire insurance.
