Help, had car accident, need to find parts to bring down my deductible
I've had a super string of bad luck lately. had a car accident (again) 2nd time in 4 months)
Two line narrow curve on Storrow drive in Boston. I was in right lane. Guy in left lane veered towards me so I had to veer towards the curb to avoid him.
Well, no body work, but the wheels and rims gashed up against the curb.Well that bashed in the rear suspension a bit. Front wheel pretty much separated. steering tie rod 2 out of 3 ball joints separated.
Problem now i i'm knocking my head for not selecting a $500 deductibule instead of $1000. Shop is willing to work with me.

Biggest area i'm trying to save are tires and rims. sidewalls were completely blown on both rims are gashed around the lip and in the mid section and are possibly dented.
Insurance gave $189 each ($396 total) to replace or recondition the rims.
For the Tires: Michelin 225/50ZR16 Pilot Sport A/S Plus, i'm getting $219.80 each. Not sure if that includes the $77.07 per tire depreciation wear charge.
Where are inexpensive places where I can find these specific Mercedes-Benz rims? I need 2 of these. Mine are from a 2001 C320 with the C6 sport package. OEm part number is 2034010702

MBWorld Fanatic!
I have a set of '05/'06 C230 wheels I'd like to sell. They're in good used shape. I'm thinking about $500 including shipping. Let me know if you're interested.

If anything buy the set of wheels and sell yours individually. Probably the best you can do unless you pay 400 for 2 which at that point might as well buy the set
