Driving to work this morning some idiot decided to use my lane to drive towards me.Managed to swerve to avoid him but ended up smacking the kerb rather hard.Pulled over to have a word with the guy but he had driven off.(No surprise). Inspected damage. Big gashes and scratches over half the wheel and a small chunk taken out of the tyre.Really pissed off now.
I think the scrapes are too deep for wicked wheels to dress and repair, so i need a replacement: OZ SuperT in gold.Anyone who can help would be great.
Thanks

I'll keep my eyes open for some - I'm after a spare (or 2).

I take it these are the 15 spoke superTs?
If so, they seem a bit like hen's teeth

You can just buy one new can't you?

Fair enough Chris but your bad luck seems to be caused other muppets and not stuff you are responsible for

I hit a kerb hard on Sunday with mine. Amazingly, the tyre stayed up, although the wheel took a large knock. I'm going to fix it myself with one of those alloy wheel repair kits.

I'll worry about doing it properly next year when I get all 4 refurbished.
