Default stock rim price

Does anyone know how much front and rear stock rims are for our cars? Thanks

John

About $400 a pop, which is less than retail. If you look, you can find them significantly cheaper used.

my car is arriving end of November and I have serious thoughts about changing them rightaway.....if you are interested, we can deal, i will get my car from the dealer and take them off at the wheel shop (so they will be as new as you can get them USED)

Thanks, the reason I asked is that I screwed them up and Ins is going to buy me new ones, I was wondering how much I was looking at. Now I know. I want to look for some aftermarket ones but I don't want to break the bank.

I curbed one of mine the other day backing into a parking spot in front of my apartment. I always like parking on the end, close to the curb. Well, my habit finally got the best of me and "scraaaaape". Needless to say I got out of the car muttering every curse word in the book on my way around to the passenger side to see the damage. Sure enough, a nice series of scratches on the edge and one of the spokes of my 8 month old '04 rear wheel. The problem is my insurance deductable for collision is $500 and the wheel is $410. So I either live with it or I spend the money out of my pocket. It's not too bad, so I may just live with it. I was thinking the same as you and was going to just sell them used and buy aftermarket to replace them, but my car is leased and finding wheels for the S2000 that I like and that are affordable is not easy. Everyone has the same wheels for this car because of the hard to find offsets and just about all of them are all more $$$ than the OEM.

I have heard of people geting them re-finished and you can't even tell that they were ever curbed. Mine is dented along with a ton of suspension damage so $500 is the least of my worries.

I'll have to look into that. I don't think there are any local places around here that do it.
