Default Need OEM Rim

Hi,

Does anyone have an un-blemished stock RA OEM rim they're trying to get rid of? I'm super anal about my RA, and my right rear rim met a curb today. The rash is small but depending on price might be worth replacing.

Small? How small?

Just FYI... things are going to get scratched, dented, broken, chipped, and everything in between. Especially if it's your daily driver. Just learn to cope with certain things like small scratches and whatnot. It's inevitable.

Next thing you know you'll be replacing your wheels every month. I already have a few scratches on my nice aftermarket wheels, but it's nothing major so I don't bother with it.

I hear what you guys are saying, and I know things will happen. I had a 2010 ww RA and those rims met the curb once or twice, then once I bought my '11 I told myself I would protect her... lol I was originally looking at tarmac black for both of them, but man you're right EVERYTHING shows on a black car and knowing how anal I am about cosmetics I would lose my mind trying to keep it clean. BravoZero- Replacing my wheels every month? You might be onto something there!

+1, and poor suspension! DC roads are the worst for lowered cars.
