So on friday night I was driving to a party, took a turn, and boom! I knew I hit a pothole, pulled over to change my tire. Found this



Now today I went to go fix my rims and found out since it was cracked and dented, the way it was cracked I cannot repair it. So now I'm stuck and dont know what to do. I have a spare tire on my car so I cant go long with it. I dont have enough to buy super nice rims, so do I buy some decent local rims. Or do I buy some rims online and wait like 2 weeks for them to come? Or do I buy some donuts for now till I can find a set I really like.

I'm kinda feeling the Privat rims cause I'm a mesh fan. I want Volk GT-Us but cant afford it.

What would you boys think I should do?

Heres what she used to look like.

Check into having it repaired. Maybe some members can recommend a good place.

Just replace the bent/cracked rim if it can't be fixed. A lot better than buying a whole new set of rims i think.

Ive looked into both options. Cant repair it because it was bent and it actually cracked the lip. So since its such a small surface area, makes it impossible to repair. This is the best shop locally to repair rims. And I wish I can find a spare to buy but I cannot locate one. All discontinued. I'm kinda SOL

so shop is willing the bend it back and weld it, i know that u have to know and have experience with welding aluminum but go to a tire shop and ask if they know any rim repair shops

do you still have your stocks? i'd put them on if you do. if not, i would look around for some stock wheels since they're much cheaper than aftermarket ones.

I'm located in portland, why? do you have something good for me?

I wish I had my stock rims. I would rock them in a heart beat but nope

No, not in the Portland area... sorry :-( Good luck getting your repairs done or getting another set of rims.
