Damnit, stock or not, these wheels on the car are nice, and tonight I accidently curbed it, everything was going freakin fine, I've never curbed in my life, then when I left my dads (set up christmas, was heading home) I turned my wheel a bit hard to leave his house (its ironic usually I park really far from the curb, tonight I parked really close) and when I drove away it nicked my wheel. I know its not super huge, its just the whole thing of it actually happening, cuz that sucked, I drove home wondering how bad it was, its a nick on the edge...kind of makes me sad, I made it all this time with no problem, then that one second when I think nothing bad, I turn the wheel too much and damage it...sigh...I'm in a bad mood now, its the little things that get to me...

hey sorry to hear that.. yeah it sucks.. but at least it wasn't like you smashed the front end... just trying to look at the bright side..

i do that with my celica so much now...i start not to care

but with my tc i go really slow evrywhere just because i know i hit every curb
i would be sad to if i hit my tc :(

I'll sell you one of my stock rims and its tire for $200...they have less than 50 miles on them...I swapped them out very very early...

Original rim, and full tire pressure...

I also curbed my rims. I am going to try to use a drimel and buff it out. Might take some touch up but worth a shot.

look on ebay!

Damn KFC Drivethroughs :x Oh well getting new rims in the spring any way.

Too bad you live in florida...shippin would be a lot more..bastards and there "shipping"...hehe

ya i know how it feels, each one of my rims has some kind of scratch on it :cry:

Haven't checked mine, but don't think I've hit a curb in the 6 months I've owned it, as I'm extra careful now. But that's not too bad. Some genius when I was inside of WalMart not that long ago left about an inch dent over the corner panel on the driver's side over the front wheel that I'm getting taken out when I get the cash (broke student during the holidays here, lol). Point: crap happens, don't feel too bad. I worried about my ride for two months and that happened, actually was relieved that it wasn't perfect anymore and after I freaked out once, I got over it, lol.

We have a few spare wheels here at the dealership we are trying to sell. If you need just a wheel they are $100 plus $30 for shipping and we accept all major credit cards. Call me if you are interested.

Yeah don't feel too bad...It's not like you rotated your tires on your own and broke one of the wheel locks - oops yeah that idiot was me (I'll take ideas from anyone in how I can get that thing off - I might have no choice but to weld something on it to fit a socket wrench over it)

Then don't look on eBay :(

I don't put them on ebay because I would rather help out the SL community.

You might want to weld something to it to fit a socket over it. :wink: That's the only thing I can think of.

toss that crappy scraped rim away!! and throw the mini spare.

those are straight up gangsta..

I bought from FlorenceScion, presently tis a great price for one rim, not to mention its buying from a dealer not some loser on ebay :P

Did the wheel arrive yet? It took us a little longer to get the wheel out because the parts dept manager couldn't find where the wheels were.
