nurkvinny Posted August 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 After reading these very disappointing prices, I have decided to fix it myself, muwahahaha. The prices they are asking will easily buy another (probably 2) used wheels if my repair turns South. Yes, I have straightened wheels before. Yes, I will post pics after I mess it up.

Clifford Automotive Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 If you can find 2 5023 used for these prices let me know. I'll pick up every one they have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chadz89GTA Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 I purchased 4 just like the one Vinny posted a picture of for 50$ from a guy in Dayton, these wheels aren't hard to come by cheap -=P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurkvinny Posted August 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 We bought all 4 of these rims with 2 good and 2 excellent 285-40-17's for $140. The only flaw in the lot is this one bend. So, although $95 is not that bad of a price for the time and materials needed, in this instance, it just wouldn't make sense to spend almost as much to fix 1 wheel as we have in the entire lot. Thanks for all the links. I filed them incase we need them in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
