Opinions on wheels
 

So this past weekend, my front passenger wheel got damaged when I hit a bad pothole :thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown:. Took it down to a wheel shop and they said the rim is too damaged to fix and said I should replace it. The tire still holds air, the only problem I'm having is the steering wheel vibrating. Checked my alignment and everything else seemed fine according to the mechanic...

Just wanting opinions of what you all think... Its a 2015 Nismo wheel (which according to the dealership is $1k a wheel) and my options are trying to find another one or think about buy a whole new set, possibly Vossen or Advans?

Also, would there be a market for the wheels I have right now or do you all have any experience selling these wheels?

Thanks!

Definitely get another wheel. Used singles pop up every once in a while. But you may not be able to wait if this is your daily driver. Consider looking at local salvage yards. Have the wheel balance checked before using.

The used market is probably on average about $500 per wheel for those Nismo wheels, but you may have trouble selling just three.

If you have the money, I'd just get another set of wheels to use while you find a single to complete your Nismo set. If you buy a used set of decent wheels at a good price, you should have minimal trouble turning them around and getting most, if not all, of your money back from them.

There's two wheels available in your area

i'd never go to a dealer for anything, they exist only to screw you

Awesome! Thanks for this!

I used Car-Part.com

it is pretty useful for finding used OEM stuff nearby (or not so nearby)

:iagree: With James on this one. However if the wheel is holding air and is not cracked or bent, get it re-balanced. This should take care of the vibration in the steering wheel. :tup:
