Pothole - 1, Wheel and tire - no score Hit a pot hole last week and looking for a front replacement wheel. Anyone out there with one sitting in their garage from a similar experience can attest, they are hard to find. eBay has rears but not fronts in North America. Want to avoid buying a whole set. Any color is find as I'll have to powder coat to match the remaining three. Thanks
Bueller? Nobody has a spare 19" front Challenge Style wheel taking up space in the garage? A new one is over $2k.
Have you tried straightening the wheel? a good wheel/rim shop should have a jig for doing that. I have done it many times to lots of different cars without any problems. As long as the spoke isn't buckled and it's just a flat on the rim. Good luck
This is true, a good wheel should be able to sort you out. I have looked in my bag of tricks a can only find a brand new set for $6500.00 I will keep looking for just the front and let you know.
I personally have not seen the damage. I hit a pot hole on the way to the shop for service and got a call saying the rim and tire were damaged. Car is in transit south currently. Naples Motorsports said they would see if it could be fixed rather than replaced. I'm in for a new tire regardless.
