Wow whats the story in that? You should throw some f150 22s on it now. I like the last one, and it would set ur white paint off nice

These 22's are so fragile... I had 3 of the 4 with curb rash after 2 weeks.

Sorry to hear... Wheels and tires, that must have been one huge hole. Some dealerships have take offs that might sell you those at a better rate than buying them brand new. Especially warm weather states where people put bigger wheels on these large sup's. AZ, CA are two that immediately come to mind.

I’m going to try a repair. There is a company close by that says they can do it. $140ea. Worth a try. I have found them for $600ea. as a backup.

I don't want to be a Debbie Downer, but I very much doubt you could repair a bend like that without risking the integrity of the rim - repairs are for scuff marks etc, not for completely deformed alloy wheels.

Even if someone claimed to be able to repair it, I am not sure I would trust my safety to a repaired rim that had previously been damaged that badly.

Sorry, just my $0.02

I fully trust the integrity and safety. It is aluminum and is very malleable. What I don’t like is the fact I doubt they would ever be as "true" as factory. I will be hyper focused on it until I replace them. I don’t want to replace them now though. When I replace they will be aftermarket. I do not want to do that right this second.
A: I am just not ready and need more time to choose the right wheel
B: I just bought property that came up for sale adjoining my home. It was not planned, but when there was a flood of interest, we just couldn’t bare to see it go to anyone else.
C: Christmas $$$. If I screw with my wife’s Christmas plans in any way......... Christmas is not to be messed with in my house. We do it big!! She is already super pissed I damaged them in the first place!!!
