Could do a custom refinish, or keep one as a spare...course it's only 2 but you could run them like a budget speed racer for those late night drags! Do you have any pics up with the new rims on to check out?

So the dealership order replacement rims and I picked them up yesterday. They told me that I have to return the two scratched rims to them. That sucks. This morning I went back to Discount Tire Co. to have them mount the replacement rims. Well they swapped the tires onto the new rims and are mounting them and they don't fit. Apparently the dealership over the wrong bolt pattern. They got 4 lug instead of 5. These guys at this dealership don't know what the hell they are doing.

Finally done with dealing with the oakland dealership. The service department re-order the rims with the correct bolt pattern. I got them put on this morning but I still had to return the two scratched rims. I asked one of the service guys what they were going to do with the rims and they said they were going to return them to Konig under a warrenty exchange or something. I'm not sure how they can return scratch rims and expect to re-coop there money. I'm glad this is ordeal is over with and I wont be returning back to the Oakland Toyota dealership any time soon.
