    Re: Quick survey if you guys don't mind...really easy

    1) Yes
    2) $250, used but in perfect condition
    3) Plenty of damage
    4) Plenty of curb damage experiences
    5) Repaired myself, around $100/wheel to fix at a shop tho

    I wish they would make LIGHT, CURB SCRATCH RESISTANT, and INEXPENSIVE(below $1000) wheels, im sure the technology is there. I would so invest in some.

    Re: Quick survey if you guys don't mind...really easy

    Ill play with our wheels.

    2) We offer wheels anywhere from $699 to $999 for a complete set (4) of 18"-19" wheels in various finishes.
    3) Damage is inevitable... 18" and 19" have super thin sidewalls compared to stockies that are 16" and 17". Most of our wheels have gone through numerous track days and horrible daily driving conditions without a problem. All wheels are JWL and VIA certified.
    4) Not very many at all to be honest, most customers are VERY VERY happy with our quality vs. their roads.
    5) Cost of wheels are cheap these days... why not just buy a new one? repairs could cost anywhere from $100+

    3. Unfortunately yes, curb rash.
