Advice on wheels
Hi.
Wanting some help, got a subaru wrx 03 plate with genuine speedline corse turini 18" rally alloys, unfortunately my partner hit a patch of black ice and landed in a ditch. Luckily there's not much damage... Except one wheel with a huge chunk taken out of it :cry: I can't seem to find another like it anywhere that is within our price range. Would you think we'd be better off selling the remaining 3 to fund a full set of different alloys or keep and carry on searching? |
it really depends on the extent of the damage. Can you post a pic, the damage may be repairable.

Yep. Thats fooked!
|
if you are unable to find another I would, as you suggested sell the three you have and buy another set of wheels.
|
I'm glad it's just the wheel a few scratches and a side skirt that which looks like it went through a grinder even hit a tree with back end but no dents or scratches on bumper.
I can guarantee our old audi would have been a mangled mess. |
Looks like they're going on ebay then haha

What condition are the tyres in?
|
Have you tried looking on eBay or alike for an odd rim to replace your damaged one?, worth a shot haps, if not see what the average price is for a set of 4 and knock off a quarter regarding pricing up your 3, just an option maybe.
|
If the tyres have more than 4mm tread i would ask £150 for the ones in good condition and £100 for the one with rash.
Don't forget eBay has a £1 listing day today :) |
