Angry Smashed My Alloy :(

Due Having to avoid some Tw@t cutting me up on a roundabout, I've Kerbed my alloy smashing the rim completely

Has anyone on here who's upgraded their's got one for sale??? CHEAP!

It a standard 16" 5 spoke from a 2000 spec impreza.

I live in sheffield, so anyone around sheffield, rotherham, worksop, barnsley.
I work in Derby, so anyone in Derby, or Nottingham, or inbetween M1 j31-j28.

Thanx

Sorry to hear about that You should be able to get hold of one easily enough but the reason for my post is to add that personally I would get a four wheel alignment check done after that sort of impact to make sure you haven't done any damage to the suspension.

Shouldn't be difficult or expensive to replace - my complete set of immaculate MY00 alloys went for just £150. *sob*
