MY RIM SAVED ME!!! Anyone know where I can get ONE new SF-Challenge?

yeah.. 5am.. on a 5 lane road.. 2 cars.. HOW DO YOU HIT SOMEONE IN THAT SITUATION?!

I was heading up haven from the 10... a 92 civic was on the road with me (VDC was off) and all of the sudden i hear a THUD and the rear slips to the left.. my frist thought was "aw hell no." then how bad the 1/4 panel should've been scratched/dinged.. turns out the 10.5" rear took the full hit so NO body damage.. down side is that he scrapped like 2mm off my lip =( anyways the guy looked around 30 and hes willing to buy me a new rim - so no insurance.

But yeah anyone have a nice hook up for ONE 19"x10.5 SF Challenge in Gold? Got a few prices on a couple of areas and turns out one rim is $620 with cash!! x.x

pix later.. =(

Yeah Eric.
Make sure you get your car on a lift and get it looked at.

You're gonna wanna make sure no bolts/screws have snapped/cracked.
Alignment will definitely be off.
Take her to an alignment place and have them look it over thoroughly.

Some serious stuff we're dealing with here.

I would not recommend Tru wheel. If you want to know why, try giving them a call. Awhile ago I called to see if they can remove my lug nuts since I lost the key. The lady on the phone said "Dude, we don't do that here." It says on their website that they do so I asked why it says that on the website.. she said "hell if I know." So I asked how much it usually costs to do something like this and she said "Dude, I told you, we don't do that here." Then she hung up on me. Total B****! There is a tire shop around the corner close to tru wheel called custom wheel refinishing.. take it to them instead.. 818.764.7679
