After repeated damage to these rims I have decided to give up and buy new rims. Anyone interested please let me know. Below is the history of these rims and exactly what I have and why.
Last spring I somehow (not sure on this one) dented rim number 1. Had that rim repaired only to have my wife dent rim number 2. Had that rim repaired and was fine all summer until I washed the car in the fall. Notice while waxing that they didn't color match the rim appropriatly. Took it back to the shop, my mechanic fought with the company that had repaired the rim but they wouldn't repaint, so Toyota bought me a new rim.
Just last week I hit a huge pothole and cracked rim number 3 and dented rim number 4. So, right now I have 2 stock rims, never been repaired, one dented rim and one rim that isn't perfectly color matched.
So, if you have a tc 1.0 and need a replacement rim let me know. I am looking for best offer for shipping and the rim itself. With how weak these rims are, I would suggest having any purchased looked at for any other dents or damage and purchaser would be taking these rims as is. The only one that I can say that has, without a doubt no dents, is the miscolored rim. I can provide pictures to anyone that needs them.
Overall, I am just looking to get rid of them and they would be shipped with the tire still on(don't have a way of getting it off. Please let me know if anyone is slightly interested and I would be happy to provide any info needed. Thank you.
Sorry for the long post. Also, I'm in Illinois, Schaumburg if anyone is interested in local pickup. Thanks.
