do you know of any way to fix that curb rash? bond-o wouldn't work because it is polished metal, not painted, right? i know someone who has these wheels, and they're in great shape aside from curb rash similar to yours on the front wheels.

Yes you go to any wheel shop, they charge 75-100 to fix the damage on a certain wheel. If you would like I can have the damged fixed, but you must pay the fees, and I will ship that same day. It takes only about 10 minutes for them to get rid of the curb rash.

wow, i'd be really interested to see how they actually fix this - if you guys haven't found anything on the forums, maybe it hasn't been talked about - interesting question. i guess it doesn't really matter though if you take them in and they come back looking new

s0vietbenz, are you willing to sell 2 wheels only, or are you definitely selling them as a set? the person i know has 2 wheels that are damaged...so he might be interested in the left side wheels you have that aren't damaged...or he might just want to get his fixed....don't know

I just spoke to the wheel shop they charge 125-175 depending on the damage.


Selling 1250 obo "as-is" with the curb rash.

or

1250 obo + fees for fixing.
