Google "Alloy Wheel Repair". You would be surprised how good a job these guys can do.

Dun worry about just keep driving it, you will get more scratches. It's just a car and it's just rims. At least you have a responsible girlfriend, be nice to her.

sounds like too excessive to get replacement when it can be easily repaired. not to mention there is not much reason to get a new tire as well?

btw, 19" ps2 for 600 bucks? have you checked tirerack? (my memory tells me that's the tire they use)

Your memory is a little off by the way. My tires aren't michelin ps2 , they are instead bridgestone. The isf comes with 2 types stock i believe. I got a new tire cause my tire are chip pretty bad on the side. My girl got them to give it up at a cheaper price, 100 dollars cheaper to be exact and they're still 500 dollars. I told her that she didn't have to buy it but she insisted so she did and she also is repairing my scratch up rim and tire. So i c it as an extra rim and tire. Its funny to me u reply to one of my post in another thread about stock rims and tires for sale doggin on me about if i read it wrong and my grammar and spelling issue. I forget, this is an english class isn't it? I better watch out for my spelling and grammar or i will fail or be looked down upon or b made fun of. Yes i did read that post wrong and i am sorry that i made a mistake, like u never made a mistake or type a typo b4 in your life so u wanna go pointing ppl out. I also stated in that post that not once but twice that i wasn't trying to be rude. "btw, 19" ps2 for 600 bucks? have you checked tirerack? (my memory tells me that's the tire they use) "You made a mistake!" I never said my tire were michelin ps2 in any of my post in this thread so i dont know y u assume that it is. Y r u up in case wait let me retype that i better spell and use my grammar and punctuation correctly before my english teacher Mr. rominl gets all concerned with unimportant stuff. Why are you all up in my case? Because mine came stock with a bridgestone not a michelin. So i dont know what to tell you. Have u checked my dealer? (my memory tells me that's the tire they use.) Look at that, a period after "use" i guess i am not to bad with this grammar thing i suppose. Neway oh i mean Anyway,
here's the number to the dealer if u want to argue with them about price. 309-689-3000 have a nice day sir!

I went to a rim place here in town and it cost me $250 to get the rim fixed. They sent it off and it was back in a week.
