I bought my 2013 f sport used but the previous owner bent the oem wheels in the front. Has anyone had a bent rim before and is it worth repairing?

 

Always worth repairing and if it still balances don't worry about it but if it's vibrating i would get it fixed

 

Have you done it before?

 

For aftermarket yes but stock should be easy to fix if not cracked should charge 150 but that's dealership price ,50 to 75 should be right price ? But again depending on company

 

Get a new wheel and never second-guess what that odd vibration might be again. Sometimes it's not about price....but piece of mind!

 

Shop around for a quote before you go head first into buying new. I'd look for a second-hand OEM, take offs from the dealerships come discounted. Check Ebay or Craigslist.

 

You can get them repaired. I had 2 bent rims and curb rash on another one and just got them fixed a few weeks ago. My tires were done too so my car was vibrating like crazy. I paid $200 per wheel to get them fixed, painted flat black and got new tires put on. I brought the car to them with 4 new tires so that price obviously didn't include the tires themselves. The car literally drives like brand new and all of my vibration issues have been fixed. All of that was cheaper than replacing one of the wheels and they were painted perfectly.

Just search around for a reputable place that specializes in wheels. The place I brought my car to literally only works on wheels and that's it.

 

I've bent my front rim. The car was vibrating over 50mph. I was able to fix it for $150.

 

Appreciate it

 

Thanks everyone, I think I'm gonna look into repairing it.

 

Your dealer should have someone that can fix them for >$100 each.

 

Call wheel enhancements in California and see if they do that sort of work

 

I bent my OEM wheel once and got it repaired for a lot cheaper than buying a brand new rim. Just make sure you take it to a reputable shop to get it done.

 

Word, thanks man. How much did yours cost?
