Default Anyone know where i can get 04-06 17" rims?

I recently replaced my tires and was told that 2 of my rims were bent. I need to replace them. I am looking for a site that will will sell new ones at a reasonable price. I am looking to replace all 4. I don't want 2 to look new and the others beat up. If someone on here is willing to sell their rims, and they are in good shape, then we can talk. I am only looking for 04-06 17" rims. I have an 05 with 17's and like to keep my car looking stock. Thanks.

Lev.

Hey Lev, 'Been a while, eh?

Why not check out eBay and simply pick up two new/used rims?

Or, see about getting yours repaired locally. Depending on the kind of damage and where it is located on the wheel(s), they can often be straightened for less than the cost of even a used wheel.

Hey Richard!

It has been a while. I've been busy with life, nothing exciting. I also notice every time I come on this forum, i have the urge to modify my car. I don't have the spending cash to do anything, and I don't want to get tempted. Any-who, I was checking on ebay and I'm just nervous I'm going to get ripped off. I should shop around and find a place to repair the rims, if they can be. I'll keep looking on ebay, and thanks for the advice Richard.

No problem, Bud.
I have a wheel, one of my light-weights, that needs the same treatment, but its a soft bend in the back of the wheel. It shouldn't be too hard to move back in place.
Potholes have been cropping up here this year like never before. One opened up overnight on the back road we live on and I have to take to work. Since it was 4:00AM and I was going about 50mph, I didn't see it until it was too late.... WHAM-O!! RF in this sink hole!
I didn't think I had done any damage right away though it sounded awful, but we noticed the damage when changing tires.
It's currently on the RR but I will have to get it looked at before rotation time.
